I'm in if you'll have me in my open canoe?

Not sure if the level is going crazy or not...?

Dan

The level is high but you should be fine.

Bill, ~ 7:25 at your place tomorrow.

Dan:
Level last week (Apr 15) was ~ 60 cms - (Yesterday Apr 20 it was ~ 70)
This rain will probably bring it up a bit (70-90).

Have fun!

I have to conduct scholarship interviews all day Saturday, then watch a final exam in the evening!

Bring Andrea (and yourselves) some beer this time instead of wine--so they can stock the bar!

And beware of the (easily avoided) pin spot after the big drops... Bring lots of rope just in case.

I'll meet at the Mont Paiement Tims - happy to drive, or jump in with someone else.

I was planning on going there with Daniel, just wondering if I can get a ride to come back to the Tim's on Monte Payment

Achigan April 22
« Reply #1 on: April 20, 2017, 10:43:21 PM »
Based on an earlier thread, the consensus is to paddle the Achigan on Saturday

It is a  class 2+ -> 3+ river with some larger drops that can easily be carried around
http://www.cartespleinair.org/Canot/05/AchiganLeduc2003.pdf
This one is located in the lower Laurentians about 2 hours from downtown Ottawa.

Plans are to meet at the Tim Hortons in Saint-Sophie at 10:30 AM   GPS:  45.8191486, -73.9014246

OR at the Tim Horton's at Autoroute 50 and Montee Paiement at  8:15am


Please feel free to use this post/thread to arrange rides.

Bill
