I'm learning, apparently, that what I experienced was "pretty normal".

I guess it would be normal to real whitewater rafters - but that, I am not.
It scared me to totally near death.

I am not one of those who will return for more heightened thrills, or even a
repeat of the ones that I experienced on the Lower Gauley.

But it WAS an experience that I will NEVER forget!

Thanks for your comments!

Ahhh, the thrill of being ejected from a raft on the Lower Gauley! Same
thing happened to me, once upon a time. Sounds like a pretty typical
rafting trip to me ;-)

Personally, I think you should confront your fears, to use a little
psychobabble :-) Do it again! I bet you'll have a blast. In fact, you
might even be tempted to try the UPPER Gauley :-) You'll see- whitewater is
addictive!!!
