A bunch of my husband's school friends decided to go for a rafting adventure, wives in tow. We headed to the Ohiopyle State Park in Pennsylvania on Friday night. The plan was to do the Class III-IV rapids in the Lower Yough on Saturday morning. We got there at noon. The temperature was below 70F so we donned wet suits, armed ourselves with life jackets, helmets, paddles and headed to the river. The river was quite full with about 6 feet of water and flowing swiftly. Lots of water meant less rowing for us but also many of the rocks were submerged well into the water taking the rapids along with them. Our guide said that we would be done with the rafting in about 2 hours (which usually takes 3-4 hours).
