This Double Upper Gauley rafting trip is truly unique; not only do you get to raft the 335 foot descent of the Gauley River over a 9 mile stretch of whitewater once, you get to do it twice, in one day!
You will definitely experience that nonstop adrenaline you have been seeking on this action-packed advanced rafting run not for the feint of heart. Out of 80 rapids on this section, ten are world-renowned Class V rapids. As water levels vary from morning to afternoon, you’ll witness the ever-changing characteristics of the Upper Gauley River.
*2011 Season runs Friday-Monday, September 9th-October 16th. Keep in mind that October 15th is West Virginia's famous Bridge Day. We will also be running the Lower New River on that day..
Do we have to say it again...YOU GET TO DO THE UPPER GAULEY RIVER TWICE!!!

When my bosses Butch H. and Andrea Z. in NY wanted to whitewater, I sent them to you I knew they would have a great experience. Having grown up in Charleston just down the street from one of the river guides, I knew my bosses and best friends would be in good hands with Rivermen. And, Dan, the video guy I'm in love. I love the techniques you used for the DVD, very creative. Loved it when Butch fell out of the raft...What camera and software do you use? I'd love to know. Great knowing there are still great people from my neck of the woods in Wild, Wonderful WVA! Luv you guys!!
