Extreme kayaking on North Carolina's Green Narrows draws thousands of spectators

People crowd the steep banks of the Green River near Saluda, N.C., to watch participants in the Green Race, an event that organizers claim is the largest extreme kayak race in the world.

The only way to watch the Green Race kayak race in North Carolina is to hike down a two-mile steep ravine - a trek so strenuous that it parallels the vertical waterfalls the kayakers embark in.
