Meeting for the Yough. If you are comfortable on the Lehigh and Mongaup then this solid class 3 trip is the next step up for you. A roll is highly recommended.
The Lower Yough is the best known whitewater run in the eastern United States. Since there is a reservoir upstream, it reliably runs during the entire warm water paddling season, in most years. In low water years, it attracts large numbers of both rafters and hard boaters and there is a registration system to regulate access from the beginning of April through the Middle of October.
Note: except for Ohiopyle Falls weekend and some other times allowed by the park, it is illegal to run Ohiopyle Falls. There is a separate AW listing for Ohiopyle Falls
