Title: Thursday night paddle!
Post by: Paul Potvin on July 28, 2011, 01:31:20 PM
I'm not actually paddling this evening but will be at Whispers at 8PM!
Post here if you plan to attend or paddle beforehand.

I will be at Whispers.  I was thinking of paddling tonight (somewhere - not sure where).  I took a walk to the Pumphouse at lunch.  Two kids were swimming the waves (run to the top, jump in, float down, repeat)...wish I were a kid!

Is anything happening this weekend???

I'll be at Champlain tonight.
As for this weekend, since a lot of folks have Saturday and Monday off, I was thinking about the Gatineau and the Rouge.

Gatineau and Rouge sound good too. I'll come to Whispers around 8pm, but no paddling tonight for me...
Title: Now on this weekend

The CCKEVM is going to the Gatineau this WE.
Then 2 WE later, the CdB has the Beast Fest set (Aug 13-14).

I need to stick near by home on this coming Saturday due to family commitments in the evening.
So I plan to go surfing at either H67 or BigJoe earlier in the day.

Monday is not a holiday here in Quebec, but since I have been in the US for most of the last 5 weeks - and still am - I deserve a sick day...

For the rest of the weekend...

The Batiscan - Parc Section is a nice class IV that is still on.

My Montreal buddies did it recently (without me) during a weekday - so I should be able to get the key info out of them - there is a juicy hole on the last rapid that caught 2 good paddlers.
There is also the Du Loup another class IV/IV+ in swing now.

Good change from the regular destinations...

So... I just talked to Tibor and I will meet him at Champlain around 6 pm. I am bringing my Villain if anyone wants to try it! --C.

I'm off for the weekend, and would happy to go somewhere nice! Since I've never done the Rouge, this sounds tempting... Please keep me posted - either here or via dani.pohl@gmx.net or 613-6086471.
Thanks!
Dani

psst if you are looking for some 'company' for some Big Joe action I would love to join ya ... no canoe, promise ... and there should be enough room there to avoid collisions

;]

I'll be in Lasalle friday night so ... early Saturday would rock !
