Chris Wing posted a blog postFirst Ever Upper Nantahala Release
Had a great time visiting with folks the weekend of the first official Upper Nantahala release. Despite the huge turnout, both NOC and ERA handled the shuttle situation professionally and efficiently, as if anything else was possible. I did a few top to bottom laps as we had folks of all skill levels in our group that weekend.…See More
