I just finished making a film featuring all the steep creeks of Northern West Virginia. There's a lot of c-1 shots, and some great local bluegrass music provided by the Half-Time String Band. The creeks are the Upper Blackwater, North Fork BW, Seneca Creek, Red Creek, Lower Meadow, Big Sandy, Pringle Falls, Toyota Falls, Decker's Cascades, etc. It's about 45 minutes long. The film is a completely amateur production, no sponsors, sometimes bad camera work. If anyone wants a copy, email me. It's $10, with profits going to Friends of the Cheat or AW (you tell me which one you want). I have to burn all these on my computer, so I'll probably only be able to make about 20 or so copies. For those of you who have already reuqested copies, they are finished and I'll put them in the mail first thing Tuesday morning.

Received the DVD today and watched part of it with the boy! Very nice! For being amateurs you did good - some looks more like an artistic in action verses really scrambling to to pull a buddys butt out of a pin!
The boy had a lot of whoas coming out of his mouth!
He liked it!
I definately liked the vid of Pringles - I never saw anyone run it and I have often stopped and looked at it - never knowing "if" it was do-able! The lead in line just looked to sketchy or maybe its just all that flow going to the high side while you have to get to the low side and nail the shallow pool that made me pucker! Anyway it looked very nice seeing it done in a C!
Bonus points for making it look easy!
Nice images of the other rivers too - sort of like being there (NOT in some cases
)! Anyway good job and thanks!

PS: For others Jack's video is pretty sweat and has a lot of C video in it running stuff that is up there in terms of pucker factor! Besides the funds go to either AWA or Friends of the Cheat - either one is a good cause!

My DVD came in the mail yesterday, I had forgotten about it and had not mailed the check out yet, sorry 
but I did drop it in the mail this morning.
I really enjoyed it, it was nice to see people (especially C1) running stuff that I had been down an seen before and that I may have a chance of running one day myself. Two thumbs up on the music too, at last a video with a decent soundtrack as apposed to one better suited for goat slaughtering.
Great job, hopefully there will be more to come.
