Gusto and Helpdesk made an overnight paddle and camping trip to the French Broad river. We put in a Rosman NC and paddled ~ 8 miles to a riverside camp. We spent the night stuffing ourselves with Reds BBQ, chips and salsa with a few cookies to top it off. We had a pretty good view of the moon after it broke through the scattered clouds. The night was peaceful except for some coyotes that got a little to close to camp for comfort. I am sure they were further away than they sounded, but we had a plan if we needed to defend our turf. Day two we did ~13 miles into Brevard NC. The second day had much better scenery and was a faster paddle overall. After leaving the river we hit El Ranchero for lunch before heading back home.
Here is the track: ~21 Miles Total Trip
