We took our big boats to the NRG to simulate a race-paddle for the upcoming Captain Thurmond race. The river at 0.1 ft had plenty of flat water between the rapids.
Posting a trip on the website is an awesome way to meet paddlers. If the trip is a itch more difficult than it gets a little interesting. I got lucky. The folks that met me for the Creek Boat Smackdown at the USNWC had plenty of game.
John and Rachel Rea along with Todd and his significant other Bethany were awesome folks to meet and paddle with. I got my first couple of laps in by 11am and paddled over to the upper pond to meet my new friends from Atlanta.
Participants: John McDonald, Amy Rae Fox, Kevin Kizer, Spencer Muse, Scott Gallinger, Dave Sink, Corinne Sink, Jo and Don Beyer
The Nantahala River was definitely the place to be this past Saturday as a small contingent of CCC paddlers met to enjoy a day on the river and participate in the first round of the 2011 Canoe Club Challenge slalom event.

Having failed gauges 101 class, and having had to cancell the Tuckaseegee West Fork trip, I decided to plan a New River Gorge Trip. We had four paddlers sign up, the same people that were interested in the prior trip.
this trip was run jointly with the Foothills Paddling Club in Greenville SC…The level was 700 cfs, which may have depressed the turnout for the trip. The weather was hot and sunny, the water clear and a perfect temperature for swimming and cooling off.
Nine paddlers made the run, including 3 1/2 first timers. Participants included David Blumberg, Merridee Harper, Steve Getz, David Williams, Joe Owensby, Steve Yost, John MacDonald, Rick Steeves, and Cat Thrash.
