I stumbled across this site while doing a quick kayak search in the other kayak thread. It’s a great read.

I’ve hiked down there tons of times but would never even consider trying to kayak those rapids. :tup: to completely insane people.
I guess there are a lot of people locally who like to kayak the rapids. I think that would take a little bit more no fucks given for me to try it.
^^nice article lol
Outside the courthouse a TV crew asked whether the $50 fine was worth it. The obvious answer was, “Hell, yes. You can blow $50 on a night in the Big Apple, but I got world-class whitewater, a James Bond style chase, and a spot on the evening news. This is America. Crime does pay.”
love it.
That was a great break from the workday!
He tells that story really well. Thanks for posting that. :tup:
ill pass lol, ive kayaked and rafted some whitewater before but thats just plain crazy right there.
ummmm, yea i swim there haha
pic of my buddy jumping in…
here’s the vid from above
Swimming in the gorge? I think this could use a little more explanation
There are plenty of “safe” spots to swim in the gorge. Just be mindful of how far out you go.
+1 The majority of times I’ve gone down there I’ve ended up in the water. You get pretty warm dealing with all those steps.
i think the pic explains it pretty well
either a 6foot or 14ish foot rock to jump off of(he’s jumping off the taller rock in the pic), into a pool of water 10 feet from the rapids… its hard to tell from the pic, as i’m 1/2 way up the gorge wall when taking it(from the trail)
