Christmas on the Thompson

Nathan Zumwalt brings us a whitewater paddling video featuring two canoes and a kayak in one of the steepest gorges in North Carolina on Christmas Day. The Thompson plunges between 400 and 800 ft per mile in its final decent into the lake. The Class V run features numerous notable slides and drops including Amputator and Skatepark.

Paddlers: Burton Greer, Nathan Zumwalt, Bob Wiggins
