	How many think little wesser on the nantahala is a class 3? I've paddle a lot of class 4 rapids that are easier. If it wasn't for the hole at the top it would be a class 3. Was wondering if anyone else thinks it's a hard rapid in a kayak.

Why don't you ask on BT?  Are ya skeert? <NT> Turtle81 New

Hell yea.......theres too many go  pro boaters over there. <NT> snacker55 New

anything a kid can take a duckie down is NOT class IV DangerJudy New

It's harder than these snacker55 New

"kid in a duckie" refers to the fat kids from church groups not paddlers DangerJudy New

Nanty is a bit anomolous.  With few exceptions, the level doesn't change much laughingtotem New

I agree....but I don't run them at the higher levels. snacker55 New

You are talking about the lesser weeser aren't you? <NT> Will_Carry New

Big Wesser is kind of benchmark class IV- /IV to me.  Multiple moves in heavy water. <NT> Terrell New

I think Double Trouble is a notch above Little Wesser. <NT> gargoyle New

really?  I think DT is a lot harder to mess up the line than LW <NT> DangerJudy New

Double Trouble is quite a bit "bigger" than Wesser.  Here we go with the definition.............. Terrell New

With Bull Sluice the "cross currents" criterion comes into play. <NT> Oci-One.Kanubi New

Have fun at the beach..........I'm off in the morning to WV <NT> gargoyle New

It was a class IV in 1977 the first time I ran it in a 15' Blue Hole canoe. Will_Carry New

With inner tubes as floatation. Those were the days. Camp anywhere free. <NT> Will_Carry New

I think calling it a class 3 is pushing it. class 3 is a named rapid on the ocoee <NT> FlailingProbe New

Personally I would call it a II+/III- but as DJ points out, AW calls it a benchmark III. GRITS New

Good thoughts, but read the definition of class 2 as if you never read it before, and then think hard about it. ezwater New

That's why I pointed out the AW rating, but I do have a problem with some ratings. GRITS New

Try and picture in your mind what it would be like to come through Lesser Wesser if you had never run it before, never ezwater New

Haven't run the Tellico. As for ratings, either you use AW or you don't. GRITS New

PS for something more objective than my personal opinion, try on these stats for size. GRITS New

You haven't run the Tellico? OMG - You need to get your hind end over there next time it rains!!!... Pinecricker New

Yeah, I'm sure I'd like it but it's at least 3 hours away, and if Tellico is running... GRITS New

Hayulll; I'd drive from Winston-Salem if I knew the Tellico would run all weekend. Oci-One.Kanubi New
