Paddling 6:00:00 [3] 5.0 mi (1:12:00 / mi)
AR Packraft training at Zoar Outdoor. Three of us in packrafts, three in whitewater kayaks. Had a great time working on our boat handling skills, and we pretty much had the entire Fife Brook to ourselves all afternoon. Four of us elected to run Zoar Gap at the end of the day, with about a 92% success rate. (Partial credit for ALMOST making it!). We even got to do a bit of AR-style "two people in one raft" paddling as it was the easiest way to reunite the swimmer with the packraft a few eddies further downstream.
A very enjoyable day, with lots of skill development and progression visible after a few hours on the water. Can't wait to go back!
