KAYAK CAMPING - The Whole River

Come along for Day 3 of 170 miles in 7 days of kayak camping perfection on the Greenbrier River in West Virginia. We launch in Durbin, WV and continue our journey to Hinton WV. Day 3 was another perfect day! Fighting through dreary weather, the team achieves freedom through acceptance. Cruising into Marlinton and then fishing for the fabled trout of Duncan Rocks. What an incredible day. I believe it is the best long distance kayak camping river east of the Mississippi. We enjoyed the most perfect day imaginable and ended with a fantastic catch and cook, riverside!

Awesome video Pete! Looks like a beautiful river. And thanks for taking the time to chat with me this morning!!! Made my birthday to hear from one of my kayaking heros! Thanks for all your contributions to the paddling community. Your videos have been a huge help in my paddling journey 🙏 Hope I get the chance to paddle with you someday. SYOTRS 🔥🤙🌊

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Noelle! Thanks for the encouragement! The community is what it is all about!

[@adulfdabo898]

Almost 1K views and only 79 Likes. C'mon folks, we can do better! This is by far the best channel to watch videos about kayaking, if you're not into extreme sports and like nature.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks BD!

[@troybennington3479]

Just heard you were a Royal Ranger, 1984 we won best camp in Ohio! Love the videos because I love adventure. You document that so we’ll, the river, the camps, the quite places. Keep ‘em coming.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Right on Troy! I loved Royal Rangers!

[@saulor1182]

I'm very much appreciated all the river data you're sharing! Vehicle spotters, places for put in/take out, restaurants, and most importantly views from the river!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Don!

[@troybennington3479]

I love watching those ducks, not sure what they are, on the river. You can learn a lot watching them go through rapids, their naturals!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

The rust colored headed ones are mergansers. They are fun to watch!

[@mightydazken]

Thankful for your work Pete, another great set of videos. Inspired me to stop renting for trips and just get a kayak of my own!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Right on MD! That is the way to go! Thanks a ton!

[@rlutzmec4290]

Im putting together why we didn't see each other, we left cass on Friday morning. Must have been a few days ahead of you

[@troybennington3479]

Just missed the rodos blooming!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

...and we almost missed the water! It was coming down fast! We were talking about how nice it probably looks in the fall!

[@Jw-mp3sl]

Keep up the good work

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks JW!

[@hike-bike-paddle-and-drone]

What a great River trip! I'm gonna have to check out that Shepard's Pie recipe. I got a great Thanksgiving Dinner that I love making, and eating in the backcountry. Can't beat those homemade meals, so satisfying in more ways than one. Cant wait for the rest of the series.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Jeff! You bet! I wish I had the time to start making those!

[@hike-bike-paddle-and-drone]

@@RiverKingsKayak it’s like taking that buck with a cartridge you put together by hand and sent down the barrel of your iron sight lever action! Lol!

[@WVWes]

Were any of these campsites designated sites from the GreenbrierRiver trail? Its a trail thats supposed to follow the river Good looking video for day 3!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

I am not aware of any designated sites. There may be some, but we generally prefer undeveloped backcountry camping anyway. Thanks a ton Wes!

[@zachariahschiada2440]

I appreciate the correct pronunciation of Appalachian. When I went to ASU I would have people ask how things were at Apalayshian state.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

love it!

[@vincentperagine]

Did I miss something? You said someone left something very valuable behind...What was it?? Great video BTW....

[@johnb8369]

Exactly, will probably be revealed later. Hopefully not car keys.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Stay tuned for Day 4! Thanks Vincent!

[@studio315]

Hey Pete, loving the info, tips and trips your provide on here. I’ve got a question for you regarding your camera charging gear on this trip. What are you using and how do you guarantee you have enough juice for a trip like this?

[@RiverKingsKayak]

I am running two GoPros, Austin has the same as well as a drone and a big camera. I use a Voltaic Solutions solar charging system...here is a link to a review I did on it... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnXaqmt8ralqrJo

[@studio315]

Thanks mate I’ll check it out.

[@Jw-mp3sl]

I have been searching and searching for a yukon expedition.....and searching.....😢

[@RiverKingsKayak]

they are getting harder to find for sure!

[@JBDad85]

Hey Pete! Is that the Performance Tour paddle from rpc3 you're using or the Adventure Tour? How do you like it? I'm in the market for a new lightweight touring paddle.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Hey JBD! I actually have both. I use almost entirely the performance tour. The adventure tour comes along as the backup paddle on every trip. I just prefer the more whitewater style blade design. They are both great.

[@escapewithjay]

Hey Pete, what do you use for your dry suit? Thanks

[@RiverKingsKayak]

I use an Immersion Research Devils Club Drysuit. Absolutely love it!

[@escapewithjay]

@@RiverKingsKayak Thank you, ive long felt like ive been... "playing without protection" so Ive been looking into them...

[@kimschieldknecht5113]

What brand and model kayak do you own ?

[@RiverKingsKayak]

That is a Prijon Yukon Expedition. It is an amazing craft!
