Review for American Whitewater, Cullowhee, NC, USA
American Whitewater is - and has long been - the premier whitewater river conservation organization. AW's work to conserve and protect our river resources has spanned the country and included almost all of the significant conservation victories in this arena. As mentioned above, the organization's work with FERC relicensing continues to lead the way in creating and preserving recreational river flows and ensuring access for the public. AW takes the lead in projects, large and small, throughout the country and AW is the "go to" river stewardship organization. Additionally, AW's safety and outreach/educational programs and resources are invaluable to the thousands of river users who depend on AW for flow information, safety databases, and their historical archives. AW has become the collective memory for whitewater river recreation in the USA.
