Only One More Week on the Chattooga!

But Oh what a time it will be!

November 8th is the last day for rafting on the Chattooga River and the 2009 season for Wildwater. For the past few days we’ve had steady rain followed by gorgeous days like today!! This has caused the water levels to rise again, not as much as we saw last month, but a significant amount. Check out the pictures we’ve uploaded to our website. The Chattooga is the only river run by Wildwater that is not dam controlled. While the rain can have an effect on our dam controlled rivers  (conditions are aided by the smaller streams and brooks feeding into the river downstream),  rainfall is the main influence of conditions on the Chattooga.

Need another reason to go rafting? Well we’ve got two! How about the amazing fall foliage. In the last two weeks conditions have been near perfect to get the leaves popping into their show of colors! Although colors are starting to get past peak in Western NC they are just peaking in Upstate SC where the Chattooga is located. Secondly, mention fall specials and receive 20% off of any Wildwater trip. Don't wait or you might just miss the adventure!!!

Visit our website to find out more about the exciting trips we have to offer this last few weeks, and don’t forget that the weekend of November 7th is also the last release date on the Cheoah River in Robbinsville, NC for 2009!
