March is quickly approaching and the promise of spring rains brings with it the anticipated start of the paddling season. In the mountains of
Western North Carolina that means the beginning of “Creeking” season.
For advanced boaters, nothing captures the essence of kayaking better than paddling on the tight vertical streams that flow after a good rain.
The combination of gradient, technical challenge and beauty of the surrounding wilderness bring together the challenge and excitement that defines our sport.
Our NOC Creek Week is designed to give paddlers with Class IV experience the skills necessary for creeking. This year Team D member Andrew Holcombe and NOC Head Instructor Rob Barham will guide you on a creeking adventure and take your paddling skills to the next level.
