Whitewater Rafting on West Virginia's New & Gauley Rivers Come on in, the Water's Weird - Sports

It's not everyone who can look at the violent white caps of river rapids and think, "I want to master that." Whitewater rafters are not just anyone.A certain confidence and devil-may-care attitude must be required to set off on West Virginia's New or Gauley Rivers, nothing to protect the riders from the rough waters aside from a helmet and life vest, but to successfully accomplish their mission would be to master some of the most popular and treacherous rapids in the country. Jay Young, a raft guide turned writer, leads readers through the local lore and history of the rivers, where the ordinary almost never occurs.
