Mangles Proposal Lower Gauley Trip October 10 (& 11)
“Return to the Scene of the Crime”
Formally known as the Lower Gauley First Timers Trip

Giggles and I will be coordinating a trip on the Lower Gauley Oct 10
We are planning on staying and meeting at Rays Campground.

The plan is to meet at Ray's Campground at 10:00am to set shuttle and Put On at Woods Ferry for part of the Middle and then the Lower.

Middle Gauley

We are currently planning on going up Friday Night.

This trip was started as a first timers trip and we hope to continue in that tradition.
If you are a first timer and are interested, please contact one of us first (contact info at the end)
Please don't just show up.

We have already had some interest from some first timers and to be able to accommodate
them and any more, we need some LG Veterans to join us also.
So if you feel comfortable on the LG and would like to help a “new to the LG” paddler, please let us know also.
We would like to make this as safe a trip as possible and will have to limit the number of
first timers if we don’t have enough veterans. Thanks for your help!

Also, this being the Anniversary of the Mangles Proposal, we’re encouraging any
Paddling couples that would like to take the next step to join us for this trip. We
didn’t have any last year (almost though… ), but we are still hopeful that we will have some this year.

We will also run something (NRG or some natural flow) on Sunday the 11th.

I'll be there Sat and Sun. Brian may join. We've both been down LG several times.
