Sat April 19 2025 Mad River (Whitewater) Creemore to Glencairn. 14 km river 90 min from Toronto

This will be the second one of a bunch of whitewater one day trips I plan to on the MAD River (Creemore) in the spring of 2025. The channel of this river is narrow, fast flowing and the top half has poor visibility on the corners. For this reason, every time I run this river, I scout it from shore from more than eight different road bridges and shoreline access points (because I live local and can do so easily) . I will inspect for the upper section in the final days before the trip (and subject to water levels) Typically I lo ok for flows of 7-8 cubic meters per second on the upper section (Riverview Drive down) and love to do the full top to bottom at 11 cu M /s, however this spring's ice storm warrant extra caution, so extra scouting will be done by me prior to the day. If high flow conditions are predicted (above 11.5 cu M/s) , the trip may run just the lower section: Avening to Glencairn, at the discretion of the trip leader. If you need a seat in a boat, contact me and I will pair you up. I also have a spare canoe to lend. Due to the damage to the trees in the watershed from ice storm and high water levels, I will only be accepting tandem canoe for this first trip on the MAD this season. I will try to add more trips later that take both tandem and solo boats. thanks for understanding. Too safely achieve a large group, we will split into two groups of five boats each, with two tandems in the forward group. This trip, I will take solo boats if .the river flows are low (7-8 cu M/s and we have enough tandem canoes
