Title: St. Regis April 8
Post by: Bill Schlarb on April 06, 2017, 07:20:45 PM

Hi folks,

This Saturday, a group of us are planning to run the St. Regis, Middle Branch, New York, US.
It's a continuous class III river with almost no flatwater.
For details check out http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/detail/id/1431/
The usual caveats about spring paddling and cold water gear apply.

Don't forget your passport and US money...

Plans are to meet at the Fallowfield Park and Ride  at 8:15 AM and leave from there at 8:30 AM
GPS co-ordinates: 45.298608,-75.734294

Please feel free to use this thread to arrange rides etc.

If you have any questions, give me a call at (613) 224-8507 after 6:00 PM Friday

Bill

Did not see this one coming.
Marc Gendron just mentioned it to me.
This river sounds like tons of fun butbut my ...passport expired in January  :(
Will try to renew it first thing tomorrow morning but I suspect it can't be done overnight.
Will keep you posted.

Oh well!
Verification done, it will be impossible to renew my passport overnight.
...Next year maybe.
But I will C1 in Valleyfield on Sunday, so I will still get my dose ;-)
Enjoy!

The weather forecast is for 5^oC, not the best but it will do.
When you're on the St. Regis, the weather doesn't bother you...
Most of us have other plans or commitments on Sunday.
