Hi guys,

Christian and I are thinking of paddling the Rouge tonight.
We leave at 5 PM

The level is 35 m3/s--which is low. In fact, very low: it's already below the 1970-2009 historical minimum! At this level, the river becomes essentially a beginner-friendly river amd takes less that 2 hrs to run. And the seal launch becomes high... Call me at 613-355-2470 if interested!

Two people, one car, no desire to use a bike up those unpaved hills: no Rouge then. I paddled Meech lake instead.  --C.

The 7 sisters proper are good to go at this level.

Not sure if it is too late but I would be willing to go ideally if I can get somebody to carpool with me then that would be better.

It works best on Wednesdays, as Tuesdays and Thursdays I have judo trainings (unless it's very hot--no air conditioning in the dojo). So next Wednesday then?
