Friday works for me, depending on the river.

My preference would be Friday,  according to the forecast the only sunny day. As for the location maybe the Bonniebrook or anything else is fine

Friday and earlier Monday (I teach at 4:30 and have to be back by then).

As to where, I'm definitely easy, but I've already done Beaver Creek twice. Although I would definitely enjoy it again...

Beaver Creek  -  Good Friday

A few Kingston paddlers are planning to paddle Beaver Creek.  Good level and lots of fun.  Anyone interested?

Easter Weekend paddling
« Reply #1 on: April 12, 2017, 02:21:23 PM »
Hi folks,

Several people are interested in paddling this weekend.
With the rain and warm weather there are lots of options (and water):

 Bonniebrooke (QC)  http://www.cartespleinair.org/Canot/04/BonniebrookLeduc2009.pdf
 Achigan (QC)             http://www.cartespleinair.org/Canot/05/AchiganLeduc2003.pdf
 Beaver Creek (ON)   http://www.whitewaterontario.ca/rivers/index.php/Beaver_Creek           
 Black (ON)                  http://www.whitewaterontario.ca/rivers/index.php/Black_River_(Upper_Queensborough)

With all the water out there, everything will be class 3 or higher
Since the Bonniebrooke and Achigan are smaller watersheds, these would probably be good choices
Please post as to what days you're interested in going and we can put together a trip listing
