Title: Moosefest Sat Oct 19?
Post by: AdamN on October 17, 2013, 12:36:00 PM
Is anyone interested in going to Moosefest this Saturday?  I have never been but I am interested - especially with someone who has been there before.

Adam

Is anyone going to Whispers tonight?

Hi Daniel,

I am driving down Saturday morning.  Plan to be at the Mountain Man Outdoor Store for 9 a.m.

I will paddle the Lower with a friend who guides and knows the river.  Hope that you can get some people together.

The Adirondack Lodge is a good place to stay  (315) 369-6836.

They have to change the name for Canadian welcome day  Moose fest!!  I think  70% of the paddler was Canadian  and 100% in the Mountainman outdoor shop.  A lot of familiar face

I bought a drysuit for 525$  Immersion research    its seem a good name for me :)

very nice day on the lower moose, not a lot of people cause every one were on the bottom section,  next year mayby!

we were with a local paddler,  Ward ?  a good guide!

He told us that is best one is the South sandy river, there is 2 on the american whitewater site so  I will aks him more about it

Bottom moose is epic.

I didn't see any of you guys out for the parties, which also happened to be epic.

For my part, I come back home after the river saterday.

How was your run? did you try the last slide and the huge falls??

Ran everything but crystal and magilla.

I had good runs, kinda messed up in powerline and got a bit surfed. Hurt my confidence and I walked crystal. I should have run it.

how was the section you ran?

I was so glad to hear that you made it down to paddle the Bottom.  You can't help but love it.  What a rip!
 
Daniel and I enjoyed a great paddle on the Lower. 

There is another scheduled release next weekend.

Daniel was dapper in his new drysuit.  Excellent sales down there.
