Hesitating between Chamlain or the Pumphouse (got to use that 50$ I gave to the ORR...). See you all at Whispers afterwards, though.

From where did you look at JJ's? Your boat? or the bottom...its kinda hard to access shore on foot cause the left channel is still running..and you cant really see from shore?! Either way.. I might not be able to make it..Having a truck is the most painful thing ive done.. everyone needs your help all the time. I have to go to my parents house to drop off something they bought..ill know around 5h30.  :-\

The water level (> 58 m) is most likely too high for the JJ wave to form. Maybe you can go take a look, and report?

I propose to meet there @ 6pm per usual but to drive up to the Desch?nes ruins to check out Lower JJ wave or to ferry across to the Ontario side while checking out the rapids there. The water is much cleaner there than at Champlain, relatively speaking... This will be my first time back in the water in over 3 weeks!

Cheers,

Paul:)
