"Berkshire East Whitewater with Gabe Porter-Henry" is an informational video about one of Berkshire East Mountain Resort's newest recreational offerings.
Porter-Henry describes how the Deerfield River evolved into a sustainable recreational industry with the advent of the Bear Swamp Generating Station. This hydroelectric facility stores about 1.7 billion gallons of water at an elevation that is nearly 800 feet above the river. It is then released in scheduled flows that suddenly turn the Deerfield into a whitewater paradise for thousands of rafters, kayakers and downriver canoeists.
Porter-Henry moves through the description of the trip sections on the river, the services offered and some reflections on his passion to deliver great recreational experiences for Berkshire Whitewater's customers.
While Berkshire East Mountain Resort has enjoyed a long and cooperative partnership with Moxie Outdoor Adventures, the resort recently acquired the Deerfield River operation from the Moxie folks and now operates as Berkshire Whitewater.
Berkshire Whitewater will retain and train many of the regional guides who have worked with Moxie over the years and it has invested now in new state of the art rafting equipment and training.
