Weekend on the Ottawa - Sacha Payne

Yesterday, me and some guys decided to go out and do a lap on the Ottawa Main channel during our day off. Me, Sam M, Q and Vivi set off on our intrepid expedition, skipping McCoys and trekking across the flat water straight to the mighty Garburator. Once there, we joined Issie, Jamie and Sienna, and after swimming in the pourover for a bit, Georgia, Lincoln and the Danimal showed up. Once we had our merry band all together, we hit some mad clips on the wave.

There were a few tense moments, like when Donovan happened onto the wave while Issie was surfing, but all turned out fine. After that we played on Push Button and in the whirlpools under Butchers Knife. After a fairly unenventful test of the run, we chatted up the raft guides and helped them load boats to secure our passage home with Zach. We then grabbed some grub at Wilderness Tours and brought dinner home, leaving Q behind with the other group to catch the 6:45 shuttle.
