    I'm DYING to get out in the woods... I hope this will be well into my "hanging season" for 2011. Either way I hope to be there and really have no excuses seeing I live 30 min away.

    I'm putting it on my calendar. Would love to meet you guys and check out some different hammock configurations. Maybe I can catch a ride from Hot Springs to Erwin after the hang and section hike back to Hot Springs.

    can't remember if I said anything about going or not. I haven't been in a few yrs so we may go

    There are times that the only way you can do something is to do it alone.

    Great find RF!
    The rafting section that the rafting companies run is section 9 and is class II-III whitewater. It's fun in the spring and is wonderful rafting trip! If you want to reserve your trip call today!
    I have an offer I discussed with my club last week too!!!
    My paddling club, The Appalachian Paddling Enthusiasts (APE's) have agreed to offer a class I trip on Saturday after the breakfast from the campground at Hot Springs on down to a FS Station. This means any of you who have recreational boats can come and join in! No real WW experience required. The only requirements to join us is that you must wear a PFD and a helmet (I can outfit a few just PM me).
    We will arrange shuttle and we have experienced swift water rescue paddlers leading this trip. We are really big on safety, conservation and education. And we're a really fun bunch of APE's!
