Huck the Southeast First Half Update
HUCK first half- In the beginning of HUCK, we were very excited to run two great waterfalls, and we knew that we would run maybe one or two rivers that we had already ran. Well, as far as those rivers go, we ran the Ocoee River (with the Olympic section). After that, we did not know what we had coming. We were all thinking of some rivers that we had heard of that were around the area, but with the Mystery Machine, nowhere was too far of a drive. We drove all the way to West Virginia to push our limits in the New River Gorge that was well worth making the long trip here. Paddling this river allowed us to expand our paddling capabilities and get our first taste of what big water is all about. With world class paddling instructors, such as Jez, Andrew, Bryan and Doug, there is always something new to learn, no matter where you are whether you are on land or water. As we do all of this, we are having the time of our lives, while learning new and useful things. We are looking forward to the excitement of running another new river, and we know that everyday will be a surprise. So far, on HUCK, we have all improved a great bit, and we know that this will continue for the next few days.
