What main channel looks like at this level?  Manageable?  Play boat or Creek?

Mangeable but Big. Playboat is ok if thats what youre comfortable in but Id take my creeker.. just because theres not much to play on... The ledge at Coli isnt quite in yet so its forgiving...

Here Sandra,

This might help!

The highest point in the city is 166 m (545 ft) above sea level, and is located 2.6 km SSE of Manion Corners (45? 14' 5" N; 76? 3' 3" W). [1] The lowest point in the city is the Ottawa River, at 44m above sea level.

Paul LOL

You are an educator as well as a smart-ass Paul!  I've hiked that area many times without realizing that fact. 

You can park at the end of Corkery Rd to access a series of trails into the area.  As well as the wooded and open alvar regions of the high ground, you can hike down to the Pinery-Long Swamp Fen along Cody Creek. The whole area is provincially protected and an interesting natural area.

The next time I'm there I will GPS a waypoint at the 166m mark in your honour! :D

What do you mean? If I am looking at it right now? Or am I looking into going in the near future?

Both answers would be no though haha
