Hey Man let's go Rafting!!!

 

Saturday We hit the New River

Getting pumped to hit the water!

 

Hopped in to swim this rapid

 

Saturday was Bridge Day where BASE jumpers leaped off the 876ft bridge above us.

 

Ashore for lunch watching the jumpers' parachutes open

 

Paddle High-five!

 

What a day!  Load 'em up.

 

Now let's hit the Gauley!!
