Here's Ryan and I in our AMAZING rafting gear:

I'm second from the back, on the near side.
The Upper Gauley is supposedly the 2nd best river for rafting in the US, and the 7th best in the world. There are 5 class 5 rapids. And, to give you some perspective ... a class 7 is a rapid that no one has ever ridden and lived, a class 6 you can ride with extreme skill & luck ... and then there's class 5. So, it was pretty intense. I was definitely freaked out before I went, but it was one of those things that was on my list, and I've wanted to do it for years... so there's no way I was backing out. The guides really do a good job of keeping you in line, even if they do have fun dumping you in the river on purpose here and there. :) I highly recommend the experience!
