Yup! Looks more like III+ to IV to me.

I am totally itching to get into that SuperHero! :P

What we see in that video does not look like IV+.
Something like a 4 hour drive from Ottawa apparently.

Looks like you are itching to get that new kayak out for a spin...

I was told it was a good intro to creeking although Quebec Whitewater calls it a IV+.

Anyone here ever ran it?

La Section du Parc

These guys are running it in river runners/play mostly..Seems forgiving and fun.

Would be keen on going.
