That looks like the Ocoee in August. 
I can almost see myself under that one raft....you know, the yellow one.

I couldn't see the guy until I was commited to running him over. The guy swam out of the hole in the middle of zwicks. He was stuck there for a good 20 minutes or so. Not a place I would want to swim. But he was Johnny on the spot when it came to kayak hurtling!

Another Green weekend. If you have the time and a plane ticket, this
river is well worth the journey. Third weekend in a row down here and
I'm not tired of it yet.

Washington has a bigger penis than the southeast.

I learned more about kayaking in 1 year in Washington vs. 14 years of paddling in Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina and North Carolina.
Sure if you're lucky enough to live right on section IV of the chattooga or on the green river, you'd be a legit paddler for sure.
But take in to account the amount of committment it would take to actually get out and boat every weekend, like you can from Seattle, and this is a comparison that really can't be made...
to Icicle Creek within 2 hours = gangsterlicious
Put simply, WA is a boating mecca.
And if we are comparing an entire REGION to Washington state, lets level the playing field a little:
Washington/Oregon/British Columbia/Idaho

This argument is lame. You work with what you got. If you are lucky you have clean water, good buddies, and fun rivers.

I agree with Monk. Plus not even our nation's president needs to be a resident, citizen or even a person these days. I vote for Adrian!

Heres some video of Big Creek in NC. Kind of like a shorter version of NF Sauk.

If you liked Big Creek, you should really try to get West Prong. It's similar style but steeper, cleaner, and 6 miles long. With good flow it's kinda like 6 miles of Gettin' Busy with smooth, round rocks.
