Well if that can be done, Id be grateful! Ive wanted to run this river for a while and I really cant miss this meeting in Hull at 6:30. How long does it take to run the river? I heard it was 2 hours?

It looks like Martin & I are going to carpool with Jean-Nicolas & CJ.

So I estimate we need 2.5 hours to get to Bonnet Rouge, so if J-N needs to be in Gatineau for 6:30 pm we need to be off the river by 3:30 to 4:00pm, is this reasonable ?

We would need to start a bit earlier for J-N to make his date in town at 6:30; remembering that the shuttle is about 20 min. each way.

Hi Bill!

I have never run the Gat before and although id like a higher water more challenging run, im sure I could have fun on there..Even if all ive got to paddle is my creeker! well I hope! hahaha

Ive got to be in Hull for 6:30 as I have a meeting so if that can be done and if i could carpool with someone, I would be keen!
