If it makes me paddle like this, I'll buy two!! Nice vid, Jeremy!
Remember Phil there are a lot of other rivers besides the Caney Fork, not that it ain't a good one. I do hope we could get on Santellia this year that is a quality run. Hard class IV and just keeps gettin easier as you go down the hill and the road is right beside it the whole way.
I'll be there to cover the event and capture all the memorable moments for the Canoe Movie, looking forward to it. Don't worry, we'll have a full makeup and wardrobe crew on board to clean everybody up

Yes - you take the left, and seems like the left road may even fork....been all of about 20 years ago, in a HD1... parking might have been at the road, and we walked up a bit... sure was a hoot, the Tellico was nearly up to the road (!!! mucho macho aqua. !!!) way-way-way over 2-3 grand on the Tennessee side. Several blow down type trees, that required some branch grabbing to get out above... bad juju for the deck boaters, they stayed way back
Anyway there's that, plus more just north and south... and the whole Cumberland Plateau down past Chattanooga (and then some) and up to W.Va.... just saying with a little luck, people could paddle without repeating one of last years runs.... and video of a B'Fly in the last three holes of Devils Kitchen would be something to see.
Will I wouldn't worry too much about havin to brin the KISS makeup.
Phill with the right rain we could do three runs a day for nine days and not have to go to more than 60 miles in any direction.
If I am still in Korea dick and Dooley will be the MC's Dooley class V, Dick class IV . The class III and II boater will have all kind of guides.
