Part 1 of Week of Rivers Wacky Wednesday –  The GNAR is back!

The “Great Not A Race” at Nantahala Falls is an opportunity too see how fast you can paddle from Concrete Beach, through Nantahala Falls to the Photo/Observation Stand. No official prizes, just bragging rights. To make you go faster and look better in photos, we’ll borrow the Number bibs from the Nantahala Racing Club again. Take up to three runs.  Safety personnel will be on hand to help you if you wreck.


All participants in any Carolina Canoe Club (CCC) trip do so as common adventurers. The CCC or its individual members may coordinate paddling trips but no one is considered leader of a trip. As common adventurers, all participants take the responsibility for making their own decisions including, but not limited to, whether it is safe for them to participate on any particular water body, what equipment they need and use, the routes they may choose to paddle, whether their skill levels and abilities are adequate for the activity or whether climate and water conditions are appropriate for their participation. Participants are exclusively responsible for their own safety.

Individual coordinators for all CCC activities set requirements per their sole discretion. The CCC does not necessarily endorse or approve requirements set by coordinators.
