Whitewater - Cheat Narrows
Description
This section can be run during low water times much of the summer as a class II-II+ section, but is big and pushy at high water levels (Class III(IV)). 3 to 5 miles. The road along the river makes for an easy shuttle (by bicycle or car) and there are many places to put in or take out. Commercial outfitters offer trips on this section. Map (pdf).
