Description	While we were doing this we attracted quite a crowd. there is about 14 camp sites that are right on the river and people were wondering what we were on. One of the people we learned later on had done this circuits 8 years in a row and never gone down the chute he portaged around it every year. The other group was a bunch of Americans on some scout trip or something. They werent alowed to go down it because no one had consent forms rofl.

Temperatures are momentary. Glory is forever. lol just kidding, It was a bunch of fund because there was an undertoe that would drag you under then shoot you out. but you had to watch out for a rock when you shot out lol
