Nrg Extravaganza – Saturday Hiking – Rivers and Waterfalls

OVERVIEW

This adventure is part of the “Outdoor Extravaganza at the New River Gorge” trip so you must be signed up for that adventure to go on this one.

On Saturday we will go hiking to take in some of the great rivers, streams, brooks, waterfalls, and swimming holes that the NRG has to offer. We will likely visit the Glade Creek and Sandstone-Brooks areas. We have all day so we can take our time stopping at swimming holes and eating lunch by the river. I will shoot for the hiking to be “moderate” on the whole, probably several miles.

Club provides: rides, gas money for drivers, and food for lunch

You should bring: hiking footwear, comfortable hiking clothing, swimwear if you plan on going in the swimming holes, small backpack, lunch (provided by the club), plenty of water (at least 2-3L), sun block, insect repellent, rain gear just in case, camera if you have one and be prepared to have lots of fun.
