Adventure on the Gorge - Whitewater Rafting Gauley River West Virginia
Few buddies pack up from Florida to go on a whitewater adventure. Fun filled weekend packed with beer drinking, whitewater rafting, and roughing it in style.
We rafted the Gauley River, from top to bottom. Encountering multiple class V rapids is not for the faint hearted.

Whitewhater Rafting the Gauley River, WV (2000) w/ Bradley Cooper
Every autumn, West Virginia becomes a rafter's Mecca. That's when one million tons of water is released out of the Summerville Dam and into the Gauley River to bring the lake to its Winter level.
The main Gauley River rafting season consists of five 4-day weekends and one 2-day weekend from mid-September through mid-October. To rafters all over the world, this is known as the Gauley Season.
This is a clip from Treks in a Wild World: Season 1, Episode 15.
More about Bradley Cooper and Global Trek:
At the start of his career, Bradley Cooper thought he could handle anything. That was before he came on board as a presenter for Treks in a Wild World!
“You put yourself in a situation that demands that you face your fear in order to achieve something that you love.”
A natural athlete, Bradley excelled in tennis, golf, basketball, track and crew throughout high school and college. At Georgetown, he was a medallist on the Men’s Heavyweight Crew team while simultaneously remaining busy in theatre.
A sportsman through and through, Bradley enjoys running, basketball and still holds a deep passion for rowing. He also loves to cook and draw.

WEST VIRGINIA IS AWESOME 2013
Located at the rim of the New River Gorge in southwestern West Virginia, Adventures on the Gorge is the home of the New River Gorge Adventure Resort including Class VI-Mountain River, The Rivermen, and TreeTops Canopy Tours.
A whitewater rafting trip on the New River or the Gauley River in West Virginia offers all rafting enthusiasts - from novices to experts - some of the best white water rafting in the world. Class VI-Mountain River is proud to have taken thousands of rafters on river rafting trips down the New River and Gauley since 1978.
With TreeTops Canopy Tour, Gravity New River Gorge Zip Lines AND now TimberTrek Aerial Park, we have the largest selection of aerial adventure in the world! And it's right here in West Virginia!
If you've tried TreeTops and loved it, but want more zipping, more exposure, more height and more speed, well adrenalin people, have we got the zip lines for you — Gravity Zip Lines! Whereas TreeTops is pure canopy tour, with 10 zips in the trees up to 730 feet long, Gravity is above the trees. On Gravity, you're zipping from mountain ridge to mountain ridge. The views are stunning and so is the height and speed. Gravity climaxes with the 3100-foot long Adrena-Line, the longest and fasts single zip line in the eastern U.S. Adrena-Line zippers routinely hit speeds of over 55 mph! And the best part? There are two of them side by side, so you can race your friends!
Many of these long, fast zips in the world require you to spread out to maximize wind resistance and slow you down for the break at the bottom. Not us. Ball up, scrunch it in, get aerodynamic. On Adrena-Line, the faster the better!
