Moira River Re-run

This year’s wet spring weather gives us another chance to paddle this great whitewater run from Lost Channel to Latta. And the weather will be warmer and the water not so high, giving us lots of opportunities to play and practice our skills.

This is a fine run for good novice moving water paddlers to move up to an intermediate level river. We'll meet at Chisholm's Mill at 9:30, do a car shuttle, and then warm up the easier lower section down to Latta. The rapids are not difficult; just a fun rollercoaster ride, with some surfing waves along the way. We'll go back to Chisholm's for lunch at the cars, and then do a shuttle to run the more technical and challenging Lost Channel section. We should finish up around 4:00, and then we traditionally hit the nearby Maple Dale Cheese store along the highway for ice cream and cheese. (Real Canucks can buy cheese curds here for homemade poutine.)

All canoes must have full flotation, and you are required to have a wetsuit or drysuit as the water will still be cold. If you arrive without these, you will not be able to participate.
