Looking forward to the weekend!

We'll (my wife and I) be in late Friday night, save us a spot!

Tentatively planning to join the group on the Narrows Sat, then off to do some climbing Sunday.

I'll be there with a crew from C'ville camping at Cheat Canyon Campground. Planning to paddle the middle Yough with my son on Saturday. Hoping to bike-shuttle back on the Allegheny Passage. If not, then we'll probably bike a section of that on Sunday. Drop me a line if you want to join us!

Cheers!

Post by Stan Heatwole »

I will be doing my raft on the Lower Yak on Sat. and have permit for 11:15. I have room for more spots in the raft if anyone needs a spot. I have enough paddles,helmets and life jackets for anyone interested. I can take 4 more people also shorty wetsuits. I plan to camp at the Cheat Canyon Campground Fir. night and can be located by my canoe trailer.

Biking options & potential link-up w/a river trip

Post by creeklgd »

Ken & Alicia sent me to the Coastal's page; we're headed out to our Yough 'camp' tonight and want to boat Sat/Sun. If we can link-up with one of the trips, since we are quite late to the game, we will make a point of being there plenty early to help w/shuttle etc.

I saw folks were looking for mountain bike options. Dave will know these spots but I highly recommend Herrington Manor St Park where you can do a fun but novice-ish trail to Swallow Tail; Savage Forest out of Accident for more challenge or from the Firetower off Sugarloaf nearer the Lower there is good single track with views down to McGrath(?) Farm trailhead.

Hope to see a bunch of Coastal's this weekend.
