“Forever one of my favorites” | Raven Fork

The Raven Fork was one of the first bigger creeks I did in NC. It’s just such a gem of a run. The rocks are so smooth and the style feels a little different than most runs out here. With a few of the most classic rapids in the southeast, plus plenty of other memorable ones. It’s just a run that whether low or high, you’re gonna have a great day.

I love how virtually every run is one of the "favorites" haha!

Subbed, great content! Found your channel randomly and saw you going down the middle Kings - I've hiked that trail multiple times and would've never thought people kayak that river lol.

I go fishing all the time at the gauge bridge right there when we go to N.C but never knew the river was this gnarly at the top. Wvwn my dad couldn't beleive it. Great video though and thank you for bringing this to my attention

What a beautiful place, look at those views! 😍

[@davek7810]

Great to see even the top paddlers having to take it slow, scout ahead and walk when its not worth it. Thanks for the insight and the paddling

[@bluetaylor8004]

We had several huge floods this past year. All the Smokies streams have new wood so be aware.

[@kellerchaplin5295]

Dane, I’m getting a new paddle should I get the Surge or the Powerhouse?

[@erishealing2042]

You are a joy

[@iainrenton7527]

Trees and whitewater don't mix well with kayaking. Good that you included the scouting and walks. Probably saved an idiot's life, the Darwin Awards are there for a reason.

[@troyhumphreys9952]

Question about all the trees that fell. How are those taken care of? Do kayakers hike back to remove it?

[@gabrieldeschenes607]

I kayak with Brent Cooper By the way that’s why Ik abt the grand chute. Luv u don’t stop making ur content would be sick to go out with u by the way

[@walthanas]

That looks like a fun run!

[@big1dog23]

Beautiful Creek. I guess they never found Nick's paddle? Also I wonder when it was filmed. Like after one of those post tropicals came through? In need of a top secret chain saw run, lol.
