Who's goin?

I hope to be there.........is the UY running that weekend?

I might head out that way. How does the Savage compare to the Cheat Canyon or the Dryway section of the Deerfield?

Tenzing,

Lots of fun. It's a BIG flush and rush narrow class 3+ rapids with pourovers and few eddies. Many sharp rocks so an awful place for a swim. Multiple runs possible in a day as it's over so quickly.

UY is running that friday & saturday, then Savage runs sunday, and UY runs again monday.

I'm trying to figure it out, man. I have a rookie I'm leading down the Lower Yough which was supposed to be Sunday. Monday I definitely want to get on the UY. My family is coming up with me and, for that reason, I'm not coming up until Saturday evening. So I have to trade in either a Savage run or an UY run to lead my buddy down the Lower Y. I hate decisions like that.

Chester -


Easy decision. Go for the UY.

BTW, from whence came the Monkey Brace nomenclature?

I like the way you think. I'll lead my buddy down the Lower Sunday and then do the Upper on Monday. Sorry, Savage, my cold, swift friend....maybe next time.

I'm sure most people will hit the UY on Saturday, but I might head down to Morgantown and run Tygart Falls if anyones interested.

Where's everybody staying? My outfitting is finally starting to come into its own, so right now my plan is LY Saturday for a Class III shakedown, then Savage Sunday and play it by ear Monday.

we should all stay at Piney Mountain. n spread out for different runs from there... but that could be our base camp?

Piney mtn. Excellent choice.
