The Upper Gauley river...
|
If you ever find yourself close to West Virginia in the fall, I HIGHLY recommend going on a whitewater rafting trip down the Upper Gauley river. There are 6 weeks during the fall where they reduce the water level behind Summerville dam and during this time the Upper Gauley is ranked as the #7 whitewater river in the world. It was an incredible experience and something I had been wanting to do for the last 9 years. If you all ever find yourself in the WV area during the fall, go check it out!!
Posting pics so you all can see for yourselves what it was like. Enjoy!

There are several class IV's and five class V rapids on the Upper Gauley:
Insignificant
Pillow Rock (where we flipped - lots of Youtube videos online of this spot)
Lost Paddle
Iron Ring
Sweet's Falls
After waiting 9 years to be in a position to go, I can definitely say it was absolutely worth the trip!!
A short video to show you what Pillow Rock is like:
