Ralph and Dave's river
run
July
24, 2006. - Christy lake/Perth, Ontario
This one was from Christie lake
to Perth along the Tay river
(see map); 4.5 hours of 18+ km
river. Survived a thunderstorm,
a waterfall, countless rocky
rapids, a couple of km of
walking the boat through rocky
shin deep water, one camera
dunking, and ravenous
starvation.

a
little more adventurous than the
last, this time with 1 canoe and
1 yak.
|
after some vehicle
juggling to avoid showing up in
Perth stranded, we headed out.
