I've got dryland plans for Saturday, might be up for a Sunday and/or Friday daytrip.

Where were you thinkin? I'll be up in PA for Turkey Day, so if you were maybe thinking central/north I would be down with Friday. Looks like the creeks are comin in as we speak.

anywhere in wv works for me. fri may be tight (maybe an afternoon run), but am flexible over the rest of the weekend.

man there's alotta water out there right now. but couple things on my short list are green/blue. big sandy, cheat, meadow, middle fork, u/m/l gauley.

i've not touched the first 4 of those, so aside from the g, would need some local knowledge to hook it up, but i'm flexible w/ location.

I'm liking your list, I've been down everything on it at least twice. Finding leaders for the LBS is usually not a problem.

As for thermal panseyness - weekend air temps forcasted to be in the high 50's, water temps call for pogies (I got brain freeze on the upper meadow last weekend on a warmup roll). Middle Fork / Tygart water was much warmer (brief trip reports coming later today)

I'll be in L-burg for Turkey Day, so I could potentially spend the night there and hit something to the northwest Friday*
Sunday I'm up for daytrip to the west from Cville*

*contingent on me getting my boat fixed again (faulty weld)

Friday is the only day I can head out, since I have to work Saturday and Sunday.
