Each year I choose a new river to white water raft. This year we'll hit the Pigeon River. The Smoky Mountains have an allure that is hard to beat, I hope you'll join me. FRIDAY We arrive Friday and enjoy the company of others before heading to bed. SATURDAY Rafting in the late morning or early afternoon 10-2 PM. We'll raft rapids on five miles of lively whitewater, rafting through Class III & IV rapids such as "Too Late, Vegamatic, Razor Blade, After Shave, and Lost Guide." Based on an email vote to the members and taking the weather into consideration, we may hike in the afternoon. SUNDAY Breakfast and break camp. Maybe a hike, say, to a swimming hole or return home. NOTES 1-The hiking trails will be moderate, likely 4-7 miles, or 1.5 to 2.0 hours. Nothing strenuous by AOC standards, such as D5 or D6. 2-All hiking is optional 3-Rafting is part of the event cost 4-It is NOT primitive camping, facilities are nearby | |||||||

The total amount should be divided by the number of people in the vehicle, including the driver. This is a guideline, not a rule, for drivers but the cost should not be higher unless there are extenuating circumstances. | ||||||
