Title: Paddling starting Sunday!
Post by: windowshade on March 12, 2009, 08:36:44 PM

As I have next week off (lazy teacher syndrome) and the temperature predictions are all in the plus celsius range for the next long period of time I will be paddling most every day starting Sunday. Please feel free to join me! Champlain has a foam pile on the second wave, as of Thursday (don't know if it,s still there though....). Sewer wave is fantastic and Desch?ne might be not bad if the ice shelf has moved away a bit. Let me know of your plans.

Hey Paul, give me a call for Sunday, then. Also, next week I'm free most afternoons and Friday all day. Let's go!

Careful, I was at the Sewer late this afternoon and there was quite a bit of ice coming down.  Pretty much continous for the 20 min I was standing there.  Most in the 1-3 ft. range, a few you could have used as dinner tables...

Keep your eyes open, the chunks were slicing across the shoulder as well as right through the foampile.

Thanks for the warning John! Hopefully we'll have enough paddlers that we can take turns at being spotters! Are you up to join us tomorrow?

Paul :-)
