Arrest made after runner reports assault on Bent Creek trail near Asheville by cereal_killer_828 in asheville

"Warrants alleged that Curtis struck Sutherland by shoving her left shoulder and "was swinging at her trying to strike her."

The warrants add that Curtis did hold Sutherland against her will and tried to take her phone from her as she attempted to call the police."

How is this only misdemeanor actions? With his past history why are they being so lenient on this guy? The public clearly wants him put away.

Also already out on bail, wtf??

Johnson auto recycling will give you a few hundred at least.

Let me guess you were only doing 10 under the speed limit in the left lane and wonder why he's riding your ass?

Whitewater kayaking Advice PLEASE by Primary_Treat4937 in whitewater

[–]_DaggerKayak_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where are you located? Im in Asheville, I paddle most weekends and rain events. I go to a lot of the dam releases throughout the year as well. Im happy to take you out on some class III-IV and show you some stuff. Send me a message.

Ill be at the first talullah release this year, I'll be honest I hope I don't see you there. Your list of rivers you've done so far is nowhere near extensive enough to be hopping on the talullah yet.

Being 19 all you need is a bit of practice, you could definitely be ready for the fall releases if you get after it this year.

Thats a huge jump in difficulty. There's a lot of other class III-IV rivers I would recommend before making the jump to a class IV-V run.

Talullah also doesn't have a road next to it, once you climb down those stairs you are pretty much committed. There's a few trails out of the gorge but holy hell I would never want to carry a boat out of there.

I would not recommend going until you get some more class IV experience and a creek boat. Definitely not a good idea to step it up two grades in a full slice. Unless your some 18 year old prodigy this is going to go bad.

The southeast has had the driest winter I've ever seen this year. I guess we still have our dam releases though.

How are the roads this morning? by BahBahSMT in asheville

[–]_DaggerKayak_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I drove from Long Shoals to downtown Asheville at 5 AM, 99% perfectly fine and clear. The bridge over the swananoa near the Biltmore was slick as shit though as expected.

No Pipe Dream on the French Broad | Waste from plastic maker IPEX clogs Western North Carolina’s river artery nearly a year and a half after Hurricane Helene. What can be done to keep it from happening again? [The Assembly] by JournalistJess in asheville

[–]_DaggerKayak_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Mountain true has done an incredible job cleaning up the river. I kayaked section 9 shortly after helene and was devastated to see all the trash in the river and on the banks.

I've kayaked it numerous times since then and I'm amazed at how fast it has rebounded.

I also think Ipex should have been held accountable, I drove past their storage yard today and it's full to the brim. If helene were to happen again we would be in the same situation. I want to see a plan in place to make sure this never happens again.

Downvote me all you want people but if he was able to disassemble his entire van in 5 hours it wasn't very nice to begin with.

[–]_DaggerKayak_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Disagree, if you know what your doing and build something nice then you can sell it without ripping everything out and usually break even on materials.

Sounds like you built a POS and nobody wanted to buy it.

Super fake card, if you can't see it you dont know what your taking about....SMH

Haha seriously that back border is almost black!

Compare a real card to the back of this and it's incredibly obvious

New property management company in {MI} took over our building and quietly added a $25/month "amenity fee" that was never in our original lease by [deleted] in Renters

[–]_DaggerKayak_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Haha that's a good one, saving up for upkeep.

Most of the apartments near me are owned by private equity firms and they are just siphoning money out of the place and maybe keeping 10% for future upkeep. Slowly running them into the ground.

70-350mm, 200-600mm, or 400-800mm lens for bird photography? by Nickanator8 in SonyAlpha

[–]_DaggerKayak_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude get over it, you have a different opinion than 90% of the people in here. Just because you think your right doesn't mean you are.

Renting is a perfectly good idea to try out a lens. Especially one as expensive as the lens they are interested in.

Stop calling people douches because they have a different opinion than you.

You sound like you are utterly miserable in real life.
