From the get-go Big Creek Expeditions is a first class operation. Reservations, facilities, expert guides, great water (make sure to ask if it is a "release" day when you plan to go - Class III and IV rapids), wonderful photo CD of your trip available, and even decent bus transport combined with excellent pre-trip instruction makes this adventure one worth experiencing. We had a terrific time on this scenic river. We will definitely go again! Not all outfitters are equal. If you want to go on the Pigeon River, this is the way to do it, first class! The put-in location is adjacent to I-40 so others not going on your trip can follow the bus and at least watch you put in and take on some immediate rapids and snap a photo or two of your adventure. Do order their photo CD. (Tip: Sit on the left side of the raft or in the front for best photo ops)
Camping facilities and food are available. You can't beat it!
