The 21st Birthday is a big one is the USA, so for my birthday we had something special lined up.
For my 21st birthday Clay, Dane and I headed to the Smokey Mountains to run the famous Ravens Fork.
After the four hours of driving we showed up with no other paddlers and a low river.
Dane and I convinced Clay to put on anyway. We had a great run down at 6 inches. Everything was still runnable, though we all decided not to run ‘Big Boy.’
It was so much fun even at low water that we stayed for the night and did it again on Sunday as well, even lower at 4 inches.

Here is a quick little video from my 21 Birthday weekend.
