I'm writing about a river rafting trip, that turns into a nightmare.

Anybody know of any river rafting adventures, rivers, that seems like
it could end up being a horror ride?

River might have:
-beautiful scenes, then have abandoned buildings or towns next to the
shore at certain points
- the people running it might just be a little behind the times, or
backwards as far as blending into society?
- the people or who run the trip, might seems a little untrustworthy?

Looking for any Rivers, that would have rafting on it, but maybe in the
carolinas or appalachian mountains? Otherwise, ANYWHERE in the USA.

You're living in the past. Speaking as a lifetime city-dweller who
spends evey possible weekend and vacation in the Appalachians or the
Rockies:

The people in the Appalachian Mountains are as fine and decent as the
people anywhere on Earth. They have access to every TV Channel, every
NPR program, and every publication (up to and including such as the New
York Times and The Economist).

The mountain people who want to be are just as informed as civilians
living in Washington or New York, and the people who don't read in
Washington and New York are just as uninformed as non-readers in the
mountains.
