Hi folks,
For those interested, a group of us are headed to the Lower Laurentians to run the Achigan.
It`s a class 3-4 river with a mix of pool/drop and continuous rapids.
You can find a description at
http://192.77.51.51/~cleduc/Canot/05/AchiganLeduc2003.pdfThe current level should hold since the region just north of the river is expected to get 10-15mm of rain tonight and tomorrow.
Plans are to meet at the Tim Horton's in Gatineau on Montee Paiement & Autoroute 50
[GPS 45.504272,-75.676496] at
8:30AM and then head over to the river.
The usual caveats about spring paddling and cold water gear apply...
Please feel free to use this thread to arrange rides etc.
