Going this weekend to West Virginia Gorge to do this. I'm extremely nervous... 😅😅😅

Did a class 3-4 for the first time and it’s so fun and not to hard

Where did you get your The canned crusher 3000 what was the company's name that built and sells this machine please let me know thank you

Im torn between here or the poconos. What class rapids are these? 3?

Ruth, Hurt? Hut?

im coming with my youth group this summer, and I went last year. had a blast! can’t wait to go this year!!

Class 6 in noagera falls

I'm going on a trip with my troop in a few weeks and we're doing class 3. Super nervous amd excited! I'll update this once I go.

Who all died? 💀

No class VI??

I was looking for newspaper articles on my grandmother, and found one from the Hinton Daily News from October 1915 that said she left for Beury where she would teach the next year. Great to see what is left of the town. I had never heard of it.

here in Chile your Class V is a class III 😁

I went with my youth group 2023. It was so fun I loved it!!

Nice

Where did you get your machine do you have a phone number or name of your will you get your machine from

The class five looks like the s bend at marblemount ❤

🤩🤩

Except the recycling yard won't take them in cube form here in Spokane Washington because you can hide a lead brick in them.

I didn’t realize WV got 101.3?

Please spell out the name of the machine (no name given in description, and he said can crusher 3000 isn’t it’s real name). Gas powered would be a joke for occasional home users-a lot of stale gas

That was always an awesome sight and fun to raft, did it often in late 80's and early 90's. It has changed, ran it again not long ago, easy and quiet put in, now they have self bailing rafts (beats the hell out of using a 5 gallon bucket) and they like to "surf" rapids (I don't enjoy that, don't see the point). That is the best river to run if you like adrenaline highs, it still holds up, highly recommended for anyone that enjoys rafting.

Did u make the can crusher or buy it and where can I get one because I need one bad

im class V

Just did the lower Gauley last weekend with my son and his buddies. I'm 57. Upper and lower mash are a BLAST!! As intimidating as it is, if you get set right, it's a smile so big the river can't knock it off. You gotta stay focused and listen to your guide! JoBo is an absolute BEAST of a guide! I will request him if I ever get to go again!! That man knows this river!!!

Where is the gorge, where is this company, how do I contact them? These are things I needs to know

Started with a class 3 for the first time in Costa Rica. Thought I was bad ass and did a class IV a day later. I was super exhausted half way through and couldn’t paddle right the 2nd half lol. Needless to say it was amazing

That was not a V lmao

Just did my first class 5 rapid, Clavey Falls on the Tuolemne, at near 3000 cfs Had a great guide who scouted it thoroughly and it was an absolute blast

I remember seeing those 3 cannons of water and thinking holy … Didn’t realize they changed the put in spot

You're desperately missed, Melissa!

why?

We used to raft with Songer back in the day. It was one of my husbands favorite things. He passed away 2 weeks ago. Thanks for the memories!

What's the best month out of the year to hit the lower New River for a rafting trip?

I have rafted this river quite a few times. The scenery is beautiful and the water exciting. A very good time.

Are you a turtle? 😁

Por qué está todo en ingles???

Como me puedo inscribir????

Be nice if you said its actual name. I need one.

Did it with the Ramp and 3 tubes Blowing 1995

I did level 2 and even that I’ll never do again

Do you guide Class 6 at all?

My toxic trait is thinking I can solo kayak class 5 after watching this video.

Two words: NO THANKS!

went through some class 5 rapids one time. flipped my raft at the top of 5 or 6 drops. was some of the best fun I've ever had

In the 1980s I made a couple of trips to Hawk's Nest State Park. Camping and fishing was main purpose. There was a road through the park. Towards its end, there were several cabins that one could lodge in. But that road, in a less improved manner, went close to all the way down to the river. There was a wide place at bottom to turn around in, or to park one's vehicle. I would park there and then a short hike further. As I recall, we would cross a railroad, then a short hike through a ribbon of woods, and one was at the river. There was a railroad bridge further downstream, but not a real short distance. The river provided several white sand beaches to pitch a tent at. Did so. There was also an abandoned town there, a ghost town. The lone parts of a building left standing was a church, the sides that held the roof in place were still there. The whole area was all covered in brush, but with very little rooting around you could find all kinds of broken bottles. I was told that it was an old town that grew up around Prohibition and was where government people came to party. Advance word would come up the railroad about "revenuers". Although well practiced in internet research, I can not find any reference to this at all anymore. Plus, I think some development there has changed things quite a bit. Fascinating bit of history--West Virginia ghost towns.

I wonder if “little Jim” was Jim Stuart?

Me, not falling out over the course of class -X rapids: "I'm basically a pro."

What is that last rapid?

It looks like I'm class 0....

This looks exciting!
