- Gauley Fest might have been officially cancelled, but Gauley releases still went on! Kayaked 21 out of 22 days of Gauley Season this year, and here is the selected highlight reel. Lots of carnage, some good lines, and some more carnage. Upper Gauley, Lower Gauley, and some footage from the New River Gorge. Been excited to make this all season, so enjoy it and share it around! If you were on the river this year there's a good chance you're probably in it.
8 minutes of all the Pillow Rock flips, Iron Ring swims, Postage Due splats, Sweets Falls meltdowns, Walmart rafts, Creature Craft jumps, and impressive squirt boating you could ask for.

Major thanks to the National Park Service, Army Corps of Engineers, and the state of West Virginia!
Dude, the rattlesnake trap n relocation was epic!!!! Kudos to that dude for not just killing that soul.
Agreed!
dude that seal launch at like 5:50 , oh man that got me
The key is to do it when the water is high enough to cover the sand.
@@van_demonium hahaha facts
Always wanted to go to this. Next year will tag it onto the grand canyon trip. Cheers from New Zealand
Aw, I missed rafting the Gauley this year. Went the last two years with ACE and loved it. I have got to make up for it next year.
This is such a great Gauley video, you captured the energy super well man. Thank you!
Thanks man!
Love you're videos Matt, they are great!!
I already miss kayaking, really wish I could have gotten good enough to start creeking😔.
The wildlife cameos are on point.
That timber rattler was one of the most beautiful snakes I've seen!
That’s good to know. Thank you!
@@fender8421 That was a beauty.
Looks too much fun awesome
@ 5:05, you were SOOOO close to making it to the water homie!!!! 😁
5:50*

Awesome edit as usual!
nugget loves the energizer
Great video man!
Captain America Approved (I'm at 4 min mark) WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
very nice
enjoy guys👏👌❤️🙏
Pro tip: don’t slid the steps if you see sand 😆
4:05 swim through iron ring. 💯
Lol I posted that on my Facebook page and it made it all the way to the guy who was in the shot swimming
Zero reason to kill that snake. It would have happily left the area. Ignorance. (Edit: happily informed that the snake wasn’t killed, just relocated).
They just relocated it a short distance. That being said I fully agree
At what point do they kill it? Are you assuming or did you get the directors cut with bonus footage?
@@mountain_ginger I incorrectly assumed and was happily informed by Matt that it wasn’t killed. So I’m obviously happy about that. I’ve seen a lot of snakes get killed and it breaks my heart. Glad this one had a happy ending.
@@mountain_ginger that's a good idea though; Gauley Bonus Edition: Director's Cut
@@samlindblom8369 agreed. and while I don't support the killing of venomous snakes, the epidemic of harmless water and rat snakes I see killed due to their "resemblence" (like, really?) to copperheads is even more depressing
Awesome video man!
