OCT-Goshen this Sat Feb 25

There is no water in Goshen now and no rain expected before this Saturday's planned trip. Looking unlikely. I might make a run to the New River Gorge if no rain comes to VA. Would be glad to have company. Thoughts?

We'll likely change Sat plans for chance to do a combo upper raft/lower kayak marathon. We've never seen the upper and want to have a look.

Jon: My wife and daughter would like to join your raft for NRG on Sunday. Brian and I will be in kayaks. A couple years ago they rafted NRG commercially at 12 ft (pause for oohs and aahs). They aren't great, but they have all the gear except for raft paddles. I might have one more person if you're s...

Brian and I are coming and paddling Sat and Sun. Most likely NRG because I expect LG to be too low (paddled it last weekend at 4000 cfs...roads to Woods Ferry put-in and Swiss take-out are fine).Definitely interested in a low-water UG.

I'm OK if you pass for your other activities, Ken. We're looking at Goshen down to post office but have a trip if this one doesn't run.

Blowing off the entire Mother's Day weekend and getting back late Sunday after a looong drive was sellable if we could hit new rivers (canyon and maybe lower big sandy). With the Cheat bigger than where Brian and I want to make a first canyon run, rainy camping, Johns creek in good shape for today, ...

Brian (my son) and I will join the Tellico trip. I've had this on my mind since missing last year. We will drive down Thu or possibly Fri. Anyone want to carpool? We're starting from Blacksburg.

We'll camp. Is there a group campground where others will be staying?
