Coming from Colorado to the Ottawa river was a big change. The difference between all the rivers and the Ottawa River is crazy. In Colorado we have shallow not very wide cold snow melting creeks but here in Canada the Ottawa river is huge warm deep and very powerful. Changing the way you paddle in white water with some thing that it took a day or two to get used to. Because you have to think about lines differently and you can see where you’re going when you’re in the raffle, because they’re a big waves and such. But it’s also nice here because the water is warm and you can go "skin-to-wind" or wear a shorty. Button Colorado all of our rivers are termined by snowmelt so the water is very very cold. Comparing the Ottawa and rivers in Colorado - it’s pretty incomparable, because they are so different and not much alike at all.
