Cartecay

Ran the 7 mile section from the MOE put in at Lower cartecay road down to the DNR takeout. Second time on the river for me, (did the short section years ago in a kayak), and the first time doing it in a 16' tandem canoe. This is a great river for those just starting out. There are definitely plenty of spots to get your heart pumping. We tried to boof the rock on river right at blackberry falls and this proved to be the first of 2 wet decisions. The other being at clear creek falls where we went right of the bolder at the bottom of the drop on river left. All in all, for 2 novices paddlers fairly new to whitewater canoeing, This was a great run and I'll definitely be coming back. Plus, you can't beat the shuttle service provided by MOE.
