Whitewater rafting is one of America's favorite recreational activities.
Each year, over 250,000 enthusiasts come to West Virginia to experience
some of the country's finest whitewater on the New
and Gauley Rivers. What makes the whitewater
experience so compelling, so satisfying, and so incredibly exhilarating?
It's real! No video game or amusement park ride can compare to this primal
adventure.
As
you drift through the gorge, the growing roar of the next rapid pierces
the air. Anticipation mounts as your raft picks up speed and approaches
the drop. Just then your guide commands, "All forward!" There isn't
time to think. You paddle forward, stroke after stroke, when suddenly
you glance up just as a towering white wall of water crashes over the
bow. The water is everywhere, and for a fleeting moment, you wonder
if you're still in the raft, but you keep digging in as the raft peaks
the next wave, rocking you back only to propel you forward once again
as it thrusts downward in the next instance.
It's
a roller coaster of excitement! As you near the bottom, the rapids begin
to calm and you remember to breathe. The adrenaline rush is unbelievable!
"I can't wait for the next rapid!" you announce through one of the biggest
smiles of your life. It's
then and there, you know you're hooked.
Here's
the best part. There is a whitewater adventure for just about anyone.
