Hi. Levels should be good this weekend for the blanche. Petite nation is dropping steadily so that usually means the blanche is as well..will get a visual tonight.... Levels might be a little higher than the last CDB Outing last year. I think we can agree that most had lots of fun on this run. A good mix of 15 rapids... 2 portages and range goes from a few class 2&3, comes class 3+ and a few class 4, 4+... Beautiful scenery!
Everything is pool drop. so easy to set safety. Heres a quick video starting with the blanche and ending in the du lievre.
