More Information on Trip #14: Premier Lower/Upper 2 Day

“Two Great Days on the Gauley…See the Whole River!”
We call this trip the “Gauley Reverse” because we reverse the order in which we run the river by doing the Lower section on the first day and the Upper section on Day 2. Mother Nature may have put the Upper section first but we don’t have to run it that way. Instead, we run the “wild & scenic” Lower first and save the incomparable Upper Gauley for last. This format allows us to return to ACE for the evening after our first day’s run. This gives you access to all our many lodging options and all the Adventure Center’s amenities and nighttime fun. We've added 7 new cabins, all with hot tubs on the deck, so you can lie back, relax, and enjoy the stars.
The Reverse is also perfect if this is your first Gauley trip. “Warming up” with a day on the Lower lets you get an idea of what you’re about to do when you tackle the Upper. The more adventurous first-timers will find their appetite whetted while more conservative members might decide that the Lower Gauley is all the whitewater action they care to handle. These folks then have the option of changing their second day trip to something they know they’ll enjoy, like the Lower New River.
So if you’re coming to West Virginia to put a World-Class river on your resume, do the Upper. If you’re coming to have as much fun as possible in a single weekend, do the Upper and the Lower, and do it in style. |
