We need
your pictures, and articles, you don't need to
know HTML or other computer skills, submit your
articles via email and we will post it here! As
long as you know how to e-mail we can handle the
rest..
Our goal
is to get information out as easily as possible
Also you will get full credit with your name on
the article just like you would in a magazine.
Please submit your pictures for picture of the

you and friends famous...well almost famous :)
We are needing a team of gauge

For a fee of around $ 30.00 you can get a shuttle in the Obed-Emory area.
Bridge Creek is outside Crossville Tennessee, and was first attempted by Tony Robinson and Kirk Eddlemon, only the first ½ mile was attempted and was hiked out. The hardest stuff didn’t get run.
A completion could be had here; it’s a steep trashy Class V waiting to be had. It’s also a big rain event run. Look for at least 2.5 inches of rain with a saturated watertable to make this run happen.

Whitewater
paddling is VERY Dangerous, and you should get
instruction before ever attempting even to paddle
flatwater. One of contributors to this web site
has personally helped bury 3 kayaking friends, this
isn't a joke. Whitewater paddling can ruin your
life through accidents and can effect your family
and friends throughout a lifetime.
The
information on this page is incomplete,
inaccurate, and very unreliable. Use
with caution. Whitewater paddling is a
dangerous sport and the information here is not a
substitute for actual knowledge and skill.
The authors are not liable for your actions. Go
ahead and kill yourself if you want to, but don't
blame others for you actions and decisions that you
will make on and off the river.
