The more the merrier concept is not good at all for a river that has tenuous access and is waaaaay smaller/harder than the others you listed. I know, the more people, the more power and leverage, argument can be raised, but you actually believe that the more people that put on the Green, the better? How will the inevitable injuries effect the access? No easy way into the narrows at all, and more importantly, no easy way out for people with injuries, correct? Come on, Gauley, Tallulah, and Cheoah?? Are you kidding? A little different on the sizes of rivers, don't you think? Great fun to be in Speed Trap and get speared by somebody else!! It can and does happen now, but let's throw another 100 people down it on a summer 4 hour release. Not even getting started on takeout parking, put in/take out road, upper put in parking, etc. Hell, on a busy weekend now, you can't fit all the cars at Fishtop.
