Does 10:30 at the take out sound OK or is that too early for you ?
Or earlier if you want to do multiple runs.

Martin & I have Carleton U pool sessions on Saturday evening so want to get an early start & only one run on Saturday.

If we can establish a time then we can do a separate thread for the other people who may want to come.

Martin & I were thinking that we would like to do Petite-Nation on Saturday, so if you or anyone else are interested let us know.
Long range forecast looks like 15 & sunny. Level looks like it will be OK.

How much of the Upper Pet are they doing?!?!!? Its a solid day paddle, but not overnight, unless they are doing the lakes....which is nuts!

They told me they planned on heading there Late Friday night and camp at the take out, then Hike up and run a chunk of it then camp...finish the rest the next day and head home. I know its a long hike...Not sure of the access situation at this time of year etc..

The Middle? frack that, you should just go to the Pet if people are running it (I won't be here, but I'm sure some folks would go going. You could ask on the Petawawa River Rats page on FB)

Yeah, The Middle is quite mellow but I was pretty positive id find a buddy to paddle with on here! some friends of mine are doing a 3 day, 2 nights mission on the Upper Pet but thats a little too long/much for me and I dont have the proper overnight gear.

Im long due to run the Pet.. Ive never done it! And Im registered for HOHW! Ill try and talk to Phitty and some of the paddlers there!

Weekend Paddling
« Reply #1 on: April 03, 2012, 06:24:46 AM »
I think I will be up on the Petite Nation at my folks farm from Friday to Monday.

I Plan on being on the Rouge with Bastien on Friday.
Saturday and Sunday im not sure but I will see what the club decides.. if its in the area (Rouge, Petite nation, Blanche etc), im in... If its closer to Ottawa... Im out and will most likely run solo laps on the P-N.
Monday, I think im doing a little mission on one of the creeks nearby Montebello ;) More details when its ran  ::)

As for Thursday, Id love to run the middle channel or just play around in the city so holler at me!
