Sugar Grove, NC- Guy Ford Rd Whitewater Rafting on the Watauga River (Class IV and V – extremely dangerous) Once upon a time regarded as some of the hairiest whitewater in the Southeast, the Watauga has a long standing and well regarded reputation for high quality whitewater. Though today much more difficult runs have been established and tamed, the Watauga remains no slouch and demands respect regardless of water level. There are a variety of pin spots, broach rocks, sieves, strainers, holes, and undercuts that require a boater to have precise boat control and excellent read and run river skills. Such a qualified boater will find a technical playground of boofs, ferrys, holes, mazes and drops arranged in such a way as to quickly make the Watauga a favorite run. American Whitewater purchased and manages the AW Sherwood Horine Take-out with the help of outstanding local volunteers and thanks to donations and membership of Watauga paddlers. In 2015-2016 AW assisted local paddlers and partners in purchasing a new put-in at Guy's Ford, guaranteeing public access to the Watauga! The County also purchased a river access area several miles upstream, and together we are encouraging enjoyment of this incredible river. See Leland Davis' North Carolina Rivers and Creeks guidebook and Chris Bell's Asheville Boating Beta page for more information about the river. Note: Please drive slowly when using the AW take-out on Tester Rd. Our good hearted neighbors are requesting that boaters use additional caution when driving in and out of the take-out area due to children and animals on the road. Thank you.
