Prime Flows on the Front

Gauge Reading0.45 r.c.

In June of 2001 we headed up to the rocky mountain front in Alberta and paddled a handful of great runs. Lynx, Cataract, Sheep, and the Highwood, all at good flows. This was my first trip down Cataract and I was blown away by the high quality of the whitewater of all difficulties. I went back years later and ran it at higher water and found some of the in-between stuff less interesting than I did on this descent when the bedrock was more in play. All in all a banner day of Canadian creeking.
