Title: paddling this long week-end
Post by: ticlem on July 31, 2008, 09:43:58 PM

Does anyone have other rivers then the Ottawa that are in right now. Rouge, Gatineau, New-york state? I would like to run something else this week-end. If any of you have suggestions they're all welcome. :)

The Raquette is the only reliable creek (CIV-V) that's running in NY this weekend (scheduled release).  There might be enough water on the Oswagatchie, but heard the Grass is too low.

Rouge is +200 for a big water run and the Gatineau is running at 28, dropping slowly.  If it's in the 17-24 range, hit it just for the High Tension wave.  It's probably pretty fun either way at the current level. 

I'd like you probably hit the Rouge or Gatineau one day this weekend, but will be playing it by ear as I've got a tonne to do this weekend.  Keep me posted when you are looking to paddle.

Can't paddle Sunday.  Looks like Monday will be my only paddling day.  I'm game for the Rouge or Gat.  If anyone's free.

I was going to join the 1pm Ottawa river group but wouldn't mind doing the rouge instead. Any other takers?   613-255-2521
