Tallulah Update

The Tallulah has become a much-loved class IV run in NE Georgia that only runs a few weekends every year, featuring a very large and fast class V slide - Oceana and another smaller, but smooth slide possessing an evil hole - Bridal Veil. The Tallulah is certainly one of my favorite rivers, simply because of the bedrock slides and rapids, and its close proximity to where I live. I try and make it to most of the releases on the Tallulah, as it is a reliable option in a fairly dry time of the year. Below are a few shots of me and others from this fall's releases for your viewing pleasure.
