C-Forum

To follow up on yarnellboats question about the size and scope of ALF and how many folks went, this could be a start. I've wondered about this too, after being to 4 ALFs and not meeting half the people there.
Day 1 Upper Wilson Creek N.C.
Day 2 Middle Tellico
Day 3 Upper Citico Creek
Day 4 Lower Citico Creek
Day 5 Middle Tellico
Day 6 lower Doe (not a pretty run, lots of litter and debris along it, but someone has to take one for the team)
I figured I boated with at least 35 people from the contact list and a few others that were not on it. THANKS EVERYONE!!

First of all, thanks to everyone that made this a success. This was my 3rd ALF & I had a great week.

Day 1 Middle Tellico (Sunday)
Day 2 Upper Little
Day 3 Lower Citico Creek
Day 4 Obed
