Title: Friday November 19th Paddle
Post by: JohnCyr on November 16, 2010, 10:03:25 AM
Hey guys!

Looks like I might be off on Friday! Will confirm later tonight!

Since its cold and a swim wouldnt be too fun, I like to stick with a short, class III relatively swim free run! The madawaska at 110 cms was great last thursday and I ran the Petite Nation last Sunday ay 28 cms and it was a fun short run!
Today the Level is up to 36 cms and on the rise! With the rain forcast of 20-40 mm Tomorrow and a bit more Thursday, Im expecting the Levels to go Past 40 cms witch would be even more exciting!
I have room for one paddler and his gear in my truck.
We can always do 2 runs since its relatively short (1h30 -2h)

Shuttlewise, I usually put in at the 321 culvert and take out at my parents farm but its a uphil 500M walk to the house and Im not sure someone will be there to shuttle me back to get the truck. and I dont really like to rely on them for a ride back up to the truck  and/or toilet use etc as I have done it a few times lately and I think theyre fed up haha!

So The more the merrier.

Any takers for this!? Water is rising +1.98 cms right now and levels by friday should be over 55 for sure! I mean level went from 28 to 51.25 in less than 3 days! And I had fun in the river when it was 28!
