Water Filled Weekend



This weekend brought some water to the region, mostly south of Morgantown, WV. A group of nine of us met on Saturday to bag some creeks. With our hopes set on bagging two creeks, Roaring creek and Daugherty Run we drove down to Albright, WV to check on the action. After setting the shuttle for Roaring Creek we realized at the put in that the water was too low. This sent us on a mad scramble over to Daugherty to catch the remaining water. While the water was on the low side, it is always a neat opportunity to boogie down this slide filled run, and for many in the group, it was a great chance to see the run for the first time.















Sunday brought higher water runs on both the Lower Big Sandy and the Upper Yough for the few of us that were able to get out on both days this last weekend.
