Event Type

Perhaps posting a trip will encourage others to post trips as well? Who knows.

Anyway, I’m headed up to the Ocoee, camping at Thunder Rock, arriving Friday night and kayaking the Ocoee Sat. and Sunday. Others with appropriate skills are welcome to join me. Note I’m far more a river runner than a playboater.

The Ocoee is a Class III/III+ river with long uncomfortable swims. A solid roll is required. I can probably help out if you’re not familiar with the lines. 🙂

For those who don’t quite feel up to it, or just want to improve your confidence, make sure to also check out the upcoming Intermediate I and Intermediate II clinics.

Reach out to me on email, FB, or Discord for more information.


All participants in any Carolina Canoe Club (CCC) trip do so as common adventurers. The CCC or its individual members may coordinate paddling trips but no one is considered leader of a trip. As common adventurers, all participants take the responsibility for making their own decisions including, but not limited to, whether it is safe for them to participate on any particular water body, what equipment they need and use, the routes they may choose to paddle, whether their skill levels and abilities are adequate for the activity or whether climate and water conditions are appropriate for their participation. Participants are exclusively responsible for their own safety.

Individual coordinators for all CCC activities set requirements per their sole discretion. The CCC does not necessarily endorse or approve requirements set by coordinators.
