Sounds good brother!

So what are everyone's thoughts on the whitewater rafting idea? I'm hoping the temps are warm enough. We can reserve our own private guided boats in groups of 6 for less than $50 pp. That gets us a two hour time slot and depending on the speed of your group, 4 to 7 runs down the rapids! The rapids are man-made and are at the top of the mountain. Really looked awesome the last time we were there. Thought it would be a great "team building" type activity that was also a little out of the box.


So... I am all for the white water rafting :) Always willing to have a thrill....... might be cold but nothing a hot shower can't fix ;)

It's all in the first post. But in a nutshell I'm compiling a list of confirmed attendees. I've asked that anyone who has made a reservation with the hotel to PM me so I can update the list in the first post.

Hey guys I just wanted to make sure you guys were aware that the Queen Suite is a 1 bedroom with a queen bed. It has a separate living room that has a fold down murphy bed that is also a queen bed. So for those of you looking to save a few $$ split the room with your favorite forum buddy!!

Matt, What river are you rafting? I would check the flow conditions, a low flow river is a major rafting killer. But hopefully by October the rivers are running better.

Read the OP, there's a link to the rafting. It's a man-made course at the Peak of Marsh Mountain. Wisp is at the base. I imagine the conditions are fairly predictable.

if it is a man made deal I might be in.

I did a bunch of that stuff when I was younger in the wild. Make no mistake about it, it can get serious.

Here's the link in case you missed it. http://www.adventuresportscenter.com/

I've also attached an image of the facility. For those of you who came to Wisp in 11. We went to lunch at the mountaintop cafe and took some pics up there.

Even if you haven't booked your room please add yourself to this list. I want to start getting an idea of how many trucks we're going to have this year!
