West Virginia White Water Rafting Trips

You may be wondering what we do in West Virginia when we aren’t rafting or skiing. Thanks to daylight savings, we are given some extra play time each day but the weather remains fickle as always. We took full advantage of warm weather last weekend and decided to go fishing. There are plenty of stocked streams in the area near River Expeditions. We picked a favorite spot, got our jigs, eggs and mealworms and got to it. We caught a few trout but released them and had a great time. There was mention of fishing the Gauley River this weekend for trout using spinners.

As for local indoor pursuits, we also like to go to Tamarack - a place to experience West Virginia culture, handcrafts, fine art, regional cuisine and music. March 20, 21 and 27, 28 they’re having a dinner theatre production called SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD. www.tamarckwv.com. There’s also going to be a play at The Historic Fayette Theatre right here in Fayetteville on the same dates. They’re putting on a production called OZ, a dazzling musical adaptation of the timeless "Wizard of Oz" tale. www.historicfayettetheatre.com. With the recent spring weather preview, we’ve been seeing more and more kayaks on top of cars around here and many of our guides have already been boating, as well. The traffic has picked up and the phones are steady ringing with people booking spring rafting trips. Our opening weekend is April 4-5, so in less than a month we’ll be seeing you on the river and we can’t wait. Lively Lani
