Hi, we are forming a group to paddle the bottom section of the Coulonge river as a 2 day trip this weekend, shuttling in to Lac Jim. Reports are that water level is currently manageable, although some minor features are washed out. There are a couple of "big nasties" which must be portaged.
A shuttle could be arranged at 10:00 am from Fort Coulonge, expect to pay between $30 to $50 depending on how many come out (max 7, shuttle 215$), BYO food/tent.
A very basic map of the route can be found at
