GatFest offers a 'co-ordinated' opportunity to paddle Gatineau wildwater rapids with the backup of rafts and many other paddlers. We have reserved early, a beach site on the Gatineau River at Bonnet Rouge Rafting/Camping which also offers meals, (instead of camping at the high school in Maniwaki). Information on the GatFest website www.gatineau.org includes registration options, so book early!

There will be a ton of people, and, as a bonus, rafting is only $60. The Gatineau rapids are powerful big river rapids so C3 skills and fully outfitted WW boats is mandatory, though water levels are reasonable at the moment. This is a great venue for connecting with awesome paddlers. If you want to join us as a mini-team - Email J&Frank at jneilson@nrtco.net or tel. 613-687-6037
