THE UPPER SECTION
This is an exciting 6 1/2 mile trip down class 3 and 4 rapids. After arriving at our outpost, you sign in, gear up and listen to the safety talk. Then we're off. We take a 10 minute bus ride to the Carolina Power and Light powerhouse, better known as the Put-in. Once we unload, you will then be assigned to your guide. The guides will then spend time going over paddle commands with each group. From there you'll spend 2 hours on the river. Our certified guides will navigate your raft the entire trip. Big waves, Big drops and plenty of surfing will assure that you have the time of your life. But never fear the Big Pigeon River is for the inexperienced and experienced paddlers. Don't worry Mom, we're gonna take good care of you. On your trip you'll get to run about 70 rapids ranging from class 1 to class 4. It will be all you'll want to handle for the day. Trips Go Rain or Shine!

• Please note that every participant must be at least 8 years old or 70 lbs.
• Any special medical problems should be brought to the attention of one of the guides so that we can better serve you.
