Title: Saturday Sept 10th - Ottawa Main
Post by: Larry W on September 08, 2011, 11:37:30 AM

hi

Looking for those interested and able ....

meet time: 11 am @ WT takeout
Most likely down the Main Channel

Just another adventure on the river. Maybe the River Gods will be nice and hand us back some the paddles lost on previous adventures.
Temperatures are slowly dropping dress appropriately ... Summer is going away slowly

Car pooling can be determined between now and then, but I am out of that equation since I will be heading up to the cottage afterwards.

I do know that as the river flows down.  :)I just may not need a ride back as I may already have one. I'm hoping that I'll go.

Could I pick you up?

I want to join in, but I don't know where the meeting place is ;-)

I'm in... Caroline, just-in-case Liz isn't able to give you directions...  WT takeout is the first dirt road after River Run gate (about 15 meters after RR). As you follow the path down to the river keep right and you will get to the correct parking lot.

Thanks Robert!
Do you have an address or directions for the RR?
I still haven't driven down there!

Thanks  :)

Here's a map

From all trips previously posted, I believe you have already been there.

Hi Larry,

You are quite right: I have been there, but Dan drove and I wasn't paying that much attention  :)

Thank you for the map!

See you tomorrow

I would like to join you. Need to test out a new to me boat. Does anyone still need a ride or have room in their car. I will be coming back to Ottawa afterwards.

Bruce.

Hi,

thank you all for the map and directions!
Unfortunately I will have to postpone, since I have a cold and I am feeling horrible  :'(

Have a great day on the river!!
Hopefully I feel better tomorrow and can make it to the main :)
