A sort of unrelated question crops up at this point.  I heard from a friend
of mine that the sluice gated on the Gauley is opend for 3 weeks during
September every year and that rafting trips during this time start at the
gates.  He also said the the river runs up to class 5's.  Is this
exageration?  I've kayaked up to class 3's and think a 5 would make for a
wild, first rafting trip.
