Title: Weekend Paddling Sept 24-25
Post by: JohnCyr on September 22, 2011, 08:31:28 PM: Hey guys!

Youre all probably at Whispers talking about this but hey! Figured id make a post!

SATURDAY:

Time : 10:30 AM
Place : Take out for the sisters, near the highway

The level on the Rouge Sisters Canyon (Not the falls..although they are upper end runnable and I might run one or two) is 46 cms! Fun class III with some class IV and V options to run and an awesome seal launch!

Video at this level : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvDuik3vCJ8

And on the way back (from the HWY 50), for those with creek boats and big balls..there is a nice park and slide running... This slide "first 10 photos" but way less pushy!

Post by: Todd on September 22, 2011, 09:22:11 PM: I'll be there at 10:30 on Sunday with one more, and will also paddle the rouge on Saturday, but won't be able to make it out until around 1:00. Maybe catch up with you at the take out.

Post by: Paul Potvin on September 23, 2011, 04:00:01 PM: Posting for Carine as she does not have a cdb account yet. She was thinking of hitting the Rouge at noon to be off a bit earlier. Can you guys split the difference and be on at 12:30. Say start time from Ottawa at 10:30. She has to be off the river at 4pm and if we go as a typical CdB crew with plenty of scouting for me, Carine, Kelly and Adam then it will take longer than a typicaly fast no scout run.

Thanks,

Paul

Todd, I'll go with Paul et al. But we might just converge there at the same time anyway if you make it by 1 pm at the put-in (we'll give you a ride back up at the end!
