Dude, sorry, things went off the rails.  I think there is a White Dog mission at 8:30 tomorrow.  I'm not sure I'll be able to make it though as my wife and son both got sick this evening.

Back up to 23.5 with yesterday's rains!  I think we are in business boys and girls!

ETA: I just got my day off approved.  Please don't make me go alone - my wife would kill me!

Alex Maggs says she's interested too.  It looks like we could be as many as 5!

Christian, I have paddled high tension in June before. It does happen. Like Ryan, I need to know mid-day on Thursday, if this is a go.
Minimun 3 to 4 paddlers for me to be in.

I thought the best level for it is at 20 or 21.
Best wave EVER!!

In June, High Tension wave will be gone. Let's talk about this Thursday! Marc Gendron might be interested too.

Level is almost perfect. 20.5. I could be convinced, but I'd have to see about getting a day off...June is much warmer;)

you can get the level by calling Bonnet Rouge.

Saturday the level was +25. High tension was ok but a bit flushy. The rest of the river was HUGE apparently! If I remember. high tension is best around 22-23.

You get the Gatineau level here:

I have on good authority that it's best from 19-24.  Currently, it's 21.5.  I hope it will stay until Friday, but I don't know for sure.

Are you sure if Haute-Tension is in ...
if yes ... What is the level to get Haute-Tension?
Where do you know the water level?
