Hi Christian,
I'll be there around 7.  I hope that's not too late for you.

Deschenes Wednesday
« Reply #1 on: May 24, 2011, 09:13:46 PM »
I'm thinking of going to Deschenes tomorrow (Wednesday) night.   I was there on Sunday with John Cyr and the wave was quite good.  The level on the Britania gauge seems to be staying around 58.55 so it should be good tomorrow too.  If the level drops a little, I think the eddy will be easier to catch instead of walking back up.  Sewer wave was still washed out and it was difficult to get into the eddy at Champlain so Deschenes is probably the best spot now.  Here's some info on Deschenes:

If anybody's interested please let me know.
