Coppermine River Canoe Expedition    Up   Previous    Next

Coppermine River Canoe 1987: This is likely Muskox rapid which Rand and Stan, and Rick and Mike lined. Ban and Colin ran it, then Craig and Bob followed by Kerry and Alex ran it. The waves were fairly large and going in every which direction, but the heavily laden boats were very stable and the spray covers kept the water out so it proved fairly easy despite doubts at the start. This sequence is Kerry and Alex running it. One reason we were willing to run it is that the consequences of a mistake did not look bad.
