Linville River

I was curious of what was in the headwaters of the Linville River. I scrolled on Google Earth and noticed some interesting looking features way upstream of Linville falls but couldn't find any info on anything. After a decent bit of rain fall over the area, I decided to put on and explore. To my amazement, there was a bunch of neat Class III stuff. I also encountered a pretty sizable dam that wasn't too hard to Portage on river right. I later found this to be Sloop Dam. Here's some photos from that trip.
