Oh boy... The look on his face as he's about to drop into the Washing Machine. I did not know eyes and mouths could open so big. And everyone who were looking knew clearly what was going on in Paul's head: Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrggggh!!!!! Just as if he was about to enter the open mouth of a hungry giant shark. That was priceless. Congratulations to Kelly for completing the run, including a seal launch into the water coming out of waterfall #4! I'm sure he'll sleep well tonight...

I'll be there a little later, head right to the put in (likely for 1:30) and hopefully catch up on the river. It'll be me and a newish paddler.

Sorry Jean Nicholas did not wan to steal your thread but since the trip is definitive I thought it needed a more specific thread.
Please repost videos of the rouge, they are great!!!:)

Rouge River: Level is 43, beginner friendly yet exciting all the same.

Meet: at Christian's at (87 Goulburn Aveneu, Sandy Hill, near Ottawa university, off of Laurier east) at 10am or at 10:30 in Orleans at the Burger King at Jeanne D'arc and Saint-Joseph Blv or at the Rouge Takeout at 12:30pm.

Distance: same as doing the Ottawa River.

Schedule: Being on the river at 1PM latest  and off at 4PM latest...

Who is going: Me, Christiang, Kelly, Carine, Jacques, Daniel, hopefully Adam, and others???

Please post:)

Paul ;D
