Title: Back bacon anyone?
Post by: Karl on June 29, 2008, 09:49:43 AM
Apparently back bacon is in as well as some feature under the heron bridge. Anyone want to go check it out tomorrow? I plan on going around noon.

Was it any good?  I'll go tomorrow if the level is good.

Haha! No it sucked!!! ;D I portaged from Carleton up to hogsback bridge to get water at the fountain cause I forgot to bring water. Then put in on river right which was a pain in the arse. Found back bacon and surfed it for a while but found the wave too short/steep as the bow would submerge easily. (Jackson Superstar BTW) There is an eddy but it's VERY small . And finally finished that off with a nice swim ;D :P. I got a pretty strong roll...not sure what the heck happened. Atleast I didn't lose anything and it's not that bad of a swim.

There was no worthwhile feature under the Heron bridge that I could distinguish.
