Muddlety Creek

We paddled Muddlety a couple times a few years ago (pre Super Storm Sandy). It was, and still is, a surprisingly scenic and easy class 3 -4 run. Sandy left many trees fallen into the river and on the trails. There is a HUGE log jam at the W. Webster Rd. Community Park
( 38.296235,-80.825694 ) . NOTE! NOTE! NOTE! There are 3 private homes just upstream of the park and log jam with MANY 'No Trespassing' and 'Beware of Dog' signs. We talked with one resident to ask permission to portage around the jam on river right. She thanked us for asking and said 'OK'. Keep a low profile and be respectful!
As of Feb. 8, 2014, all wood below that point is passable, with caution.

It's an ideal short run if you are passing through Summersville.

After paddling, we hiked most of the river upstream Webster Rd (more like... limbo under and over logs). Again, much downed wood in the river, but everything we saw was passable. Next time, we will use the our normal put-in at the animal shelter
( 38.31203,-80.833118 ).

Take-out, we hike up the waste treatment plant 'through-way'
( 38.277304,-80.828569 )
to the hiking trail parking lot.
BTW, I don't think the Craigsville Gauge is a good indicator for this run. Get a visual at the rapid at the W. Webster Rd. Community Park ( 38.296235,-80.825694 ).
