Near Deaths on the Lower Gauley
You are absolutely right - it was choice made by me. And I take full
responsibility for not doing the needed research before I signed on to the
trip.
And that it is why I am so hesitant to place blame on our guide. And that is
why I have asked the questions of this group that I have.
And I have learned that other than the configuration of the small boat, with
only 4 people, with three on the left, and me on the right - that there
wasn't anything else done incorrectly.
For any possible future rafting trips, I would definitely insist on a larger
boat, with more people.
Thanks for your comments!

Your raft guides didn't sound like they were as professional as they
guides
that I rafted the Upper Gauley with on two occasions, but it sounds like a
typical bad swim to me that all rafters should consider. It ain't no
Carowinds
ride. Its a choice. Sorry your trip turned out so badly. Go with a
recommended raft company thats known for service. There are a bunch of
them.
Research a little bit more next time maybe?
