Spring In Quebec...

QUEBEC STAKEOUT

Every year our crew of whitewater addicts congregates to the lands of Northern Quebec... Generally our mission is to seek and destroy the
biggest river waves we can find. See the Quebec section of Dream Result
for a better idea (DreamResultMovie.com)

This year however has been very different. Eastern Canada is experiencing the lowest water levels in recorded history. (meanwhile California has
the craziest snow pack ever). For example, most our favorite rivers
were running at around 1/3 of their normal flow for this time of year.
This forced us to adapt and turn the mission into a creeking
expedition. The result was amazing and we came away with some epic
footage and good times...

8 chutes river

Some highlights included a swim tally of seven for the boys, (including me
on the chutes Blanche) as well as Erik Boomer's heroic descent of
Chutes Magnan,
a few other first descents, and a spot that could potentially turn into
the World's biggest river wave! Even with low water this feature was
still huge, and we feel like with double or triple the flow we may have
found a proper monster....

World's biggest river wave? Maybe with higher water...

First known descent of Chutes Blanche

My second run down I aimed for the center....

And swam....

An epic rooster tail first D I rallied on the last day. A fine line to land between two rock ledges falling about 20 feet.... It took me 3
tries to get it right...

There is a reason Quebec remains one of my favorite places to paddle. There is still a lot to explore and I am already looking forward to next
years Stakeout...
