A few photos of EJ, Dane, Stephen, and Clay enjoying the SE Rain by Will Richardson | Nov 30, 2005 | Heros, Whitewater | 0 comments November 30, 2005 After waking-up to 1.3" of rain in the gauge this morning, we excitedly scrambled to decide what to do. After initially leaving to run the Cain Creek/N Chick, we re-checked gauges at the JK plant and diverted our mission to Caney Fork. It was 9:45 and the Jackson Kayak boat-building crew had already taken-off for the Piney River (Spring city)–I love that the guys who build my boats are all just as excited about the rain as I am! Anyway, this was Dane’s and my first run on Caney Fork, EJ’s first run at anything other than flood stage, and Clay’s….well, Clay’s run it a lot and showed us the way down. Caney Fork is a QUALITY run: 9 miles of continuous class IV boulder rapids with a harder one near the top. All the photos are of Devil’s Kitchen, the hardest rapid on the run–I ran first, then shot the photos from a rock in the middle of the river below. This was a great run for the Super Hero: Easy to keep upright, easy to turn, easy to boof, and keeps moving away from the drop of you melt it. It was pretty cool to see the river that fills that lake that makes our Rock Island playspots. Enjoy the few pics!
