  • A three day run on the beautiful, pristine and peaceful upper Greenbrier River in West Virginia. We were immersed in magnificent landscapes and crystal clear water. A small amount of history is introduced, as well as a bit of folklore. Please enjoy this picturesque treasure; accompanied by an original music score. This trip took place in the spring of 2020.

    I live in Marlinton. Love fishing and canoeing on the Greenbrier River. Blessed to get to live here

      The upper Greenbrier is our favorite section! It is unfortunate that you have to hit that section just at the right time of year for runnable levels. Of all the rivers paddled, this one is in our top five for sure!

    What a relaxing and well-produced video! I hiked on the Greenbrier River Trail between Cloverlick and Marlinton WV. The river and surrounding terrain are absolutely beautiful! Makes me want to get a kayak! Great original music score!

    That was so very nice....I was born in Marlinton in 1944. Went back most every summer to visit my grandmom. Many a day was spent tubing on the Greenbrier. Loved your vodeo.

    Great video. Was considering the Greenbrier for some time now. Absolutely going to do it. Were the camping sites designated sites or you just randomly found them?

    • @AVAJourneys
      @AVAJourneys  Před 2 lety +2

      We just selected them. There are several opportunities for hammocks. Especially on the upper portion.

      Yes sir! We put in at a campground located in Durban and took out just past the bridge in Marlinton, near the Greebrier Grill. We used a private shuttle service to transport our vehicle.

      @AVAJourneys  Před 2 lety +1

      @@jacobcastle2741 hmmm...that was quite a while ago, and also subjective to pace and paddle style. I would suggest measuring the distance between the points and comparing it to average cfs. Sometimes, we may push our pace, depending on conditions. So, again, it's really subjective. We've paddled nearly 40 miles within a day on some trips.

      There are a couple official ones I believe. We actually had some contacts that ported our vehicle for us.

    can you do without added music ? or is that a CZcams requirement, seems it is...so do two one with natural and one with...anyway thumbs up to mute

      @AVAJourneys  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks for the input. We did this one with our narrations, and a basic original score.
      A lot of people won’t make it through one without music.
      We will consider the options in the future.
      Appreciate your patronage!
