Wicked Clean Fun At Noboribetsu’s “Hell”

August 5, 2022 by Katie Cerezo4 Comments

Go to hell. The phrase has lost its power through overuse. Unless, perhaps the phase "go to hell" was intended not as a threat, but as a travel recommendation.

Adventure on the River: West Virginia Whitewater

September 8, 2019 by Amber MacPherson1 Comment

It was July 4th at the New River Gorge in West Virginia. It was dark, and I was on the roof of a truck clinging to the roof rack as we wound through the twisting back roads en route to the edge of the gorge. This had not been the plan. We had ended up loading the truck down with a couple of kegs and as many raft guides as we could fit after the trailer that was supposed to deliver us to the party developed a flat tire.
