  • Ira - Hey guys I want to tell you about a recent opportunity I had to paddle a special river near & dear to me, the East Fork of the Tuckasegee aka Panthertown! This river has been on my radar for well over a year now. It was finally running but none of the Portage Posse crew was available so I had to get outside my comfort zone & meet some new paddlers. This is my favorite river to date that I have been able to paddle. Big slides, pristine wilderness & impressive scenery make this western Carolina river a hidden mountain gem. Watch along as I tell the story of my perfect day in Panthertown!

    I did it @ 1990 in a ducky. Not sure if it was a FD

      Looks like there is a CZcams video of it being ran in 1979. Regardless thank you for paving the way for the rest of us! -Ira
