We headed to Jeanne's Mountain house at the Nanatahala Outdoor Center (NOC) so we could go whitewater rafting. Maryanna and Elizabeth went with us and we had a great time.

Everyone signing their lives away!

Here are a sequence of Pictures as we went over the final falls.
We did lots of Rock bumps and spins on the way down.
Dave our guide showed us the named rocks (that's usually not a good thing that they are named) to helps us when we go back and do an un-guided run.
On the way down, there is a place rafters can pull over and jump in off a big rock splashing other boaters. A kid jumped as we passed and executed a perfect landing drenching all seven of us on the boat. Even the guide said it was the best he had seen.
Patrick leans bank and chills on the way through the rapids.
The next day did a 4.5 mile hike starting on the road to nowhere going through the mountains and to Lake Fontain. There we swam a bit and then were picked up by a jet boat and cruised the lake.
