Only the day after returning from the Middle Fork, I headed out to Bryson City on Wed. July 4. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of folks still there mid-week in the midst of the terrible drought we're having. I got on the Ocoee on Thursday, Helped Robert Weddell run a group of novices down the Nanty on Friday (it was first time down Patton's run for several--they had big smiles) and then coordinated a trip on the Pigeon gorge on Saturday. Three days worth following 6 days of paddling in Idaho cured my paddling jones, but it wouldn't have been the same had I not been able to make it to WOR, always the high point of my year.
