July 2024 Summit Bechtel High Adventure Trek

A group of scouts will be road tripping to West Virginia to attend the New River Experience Whitewater Rafting kayaking adventure. This is a 50-mile paddle Experience on the New River. You will navigate the upper portion of the river in inflatable kayaks called “duckies”. This portion of the river includes Class I to III rapids. The final whitewater day in the Lower Gorge is a rafting experience and includes more than 20 Class III to IV rapids. Crews camp along the river through the New River Gorge. A gear boat (raft) or trailer accompanies the group to transport gear and food.
