Christian is right... The ferry becomes tricky.. running #2 alone is always another  easy/safe option.

Also, level is currently 28 and rising at +1.3 cms an hour. And theres buttloads of rain in the forecast. Above 30, id run only #2 #3 #7 myself. anyways.. trying to get friday off to join, even if for a quick lap on the seuil elizabeth run. if it raisn alot.. blanche might come in.

I am free Friday starting at 13:00. It's nice to have a large-ish group (5 or more) to set up safety and cameras... Above 25, the ferry between #1 and #2 can be tricky if you lose balance after #1.

Note that looking at the water level graph, which appears to be stabilizing around 27 m^3/s (see below), and considering the forecasted rain, the river is very likely to rise between now and Friday. If so, it might reach 60 m^3/s (my bet).

Salut Fran?ois, je pensais prendre cong? vendredi.

Samedi je ne suis pas disponible.

C'est parfait Adam! Moi et Jean-Fran?ois aussi!! On peux peut-?tre se rencontrer quelque part vendredi matin pour faire la navette. J'aimerais partir de chez moi au plus tard 9 h pour ?tre sur l'eau vers les 10h30 grossomodo. Est-ce correct avec toi?

For me it would definitely be either Friday night or the weekend since I can't take any time off easily.

But again, this is dependent on the water levels...
