Kayaking Wilson Creek with the River Kings | Paddle Tales Adventure
Dec 12, 2025
In this episode of Paddle Tales, I hooked up with Pete Beck, host of the River Kings YouTube channel, and one of the nicest guys I've ever met. Pete showed me one of his favourite 'backyard' whitewater runs in North Carolina - Wilson Creek. North Carolina is one of the best places in the world for paddling - from whitewater to flatwater, and it was easy to see why. Wilson Creek is a whitewater and wilderness gem!
