The gauge on the Gatineau is at 22.5. High tension wave is in.

If it's still in by the end of the week, I'd like to go on Saturday.

Elizabeth,

How was the wave (High Tension)? Bouncy like the one after Garvin's?

Give her the time to go take a look!

When it is in, the Transformer wave is anything but bouncy: it's the 1st wave of the rapid, very glassy.

Thanks Christian!

(I thought that Elizabeth had already been there last weekend and was looking to go again this weekend; so, I figured she already had a look at the wave.)

Hey Adam!

 I did go last weekend and am hoping to go again this weekend. This wave was very different from the one below Garvin's. It was a lot easier to catch and stay on (for me). Really awesome wave! Could you be convinced to go? :) I'd also be up for the Ottawa if this wave doesn't hang around all week.

Oh well!!  The temperature is not good for this week-end. Will have to wait till spring. Skiing is around the corner anyways.

But they're calling for above zero temps! That is awesome for November.  :)
