Kayak the Tuckaseegee Gorge - Experienced paddlers only

Details

Experienced whitewater kayakers (or canoes) only. We will not be doing raft rentals on this meetup. Of course, PFDs and helmets are mandatory. Also, you should have a whistle.

The Tuck Gorge is considered by most to be a Class II+ river, but Double Drop is actually rated as a Class III.

This is a beautiful section of the river with many good places to surf & play. So we will take our time going down the river. Approximately 5 miles.

I'm allowing guest on this paddle but please, if you bring a guest make sure they are up for it and they must wear a helmet.

For convenience we will go thru the Dillsboro River Co for the shuttle. This way once we take out everyone can load and go. Shuttle fee is $5 per person. 11:00 is the time to be at the Dillsboro River Co. (Once I have a head count and finalize plans with the outfitter the time may be adjusted slightly)

Hope to see you there!
