Long Canoe Ride on the Nepewassi River

This is a longer one! 15 km (9Mi) round trip. 🛶
Come enjoy the Nepewassi River. There were too many beaver houses to count and some very large dams to climb over. I couldn't have asked for a better day. The weather was perfect. I had an encounter with a family of otters who had some things so say as I was passing through. There were also some quartz vanes, so I may return to do some rock hounding 🪨 for my rock tumblers.
Skip to otter encounter: 1:36:40
Skip to the time laps version with tunes: 3:50:40

What a beautiful trip.

[@geneplumley4136]

Thanks. I feel very lucky to live here. 🇨🇦 🛶 🦫

I am at about the 1:30 mark now. What a spectacular day! I lost count of the lodges. So many lodges! Those dams are monstrous. Makes a person wonder how many years they've been at that job, eh? This one is going on my "replay to relax" list for sure, Gene! Thank you and hope you have a great weekend!

[@geneplumley4136]

I paddled right past a few and didn't even see them. They have been there a while. There would be dozens of beavers in that system. Thanks! Same to you!

[@kenball8526]

Outstanding video GP.

[@geneplumley4136]

Thanks, Ken. I am going to go downstream this year. 🛶

Hier soir à minuit, je me suis postée au bord de la rivière, levé mon pouce et sauté dans le canoë pour poursuivre le voyage au fil de l’eau. La pagaie, en rythme, faisait défiler les paysages aux couleurs toujours plus belles. Je vais partager avec un ami québécois qui, un jour a pris son vélo, a pédalé jusqu’à New York et s’est envolé vers Paris où il a repris son vélo . Dans ma région, il a rencontré une belle française…. Le temps a passé, aujourd’hui il est grand-père et ses enfants et petits enfants habitent au Québec . Il a découvert la France et ne connaît pas toutes les splendeurs de son pays natal. Merci Gene d’être son guide.

[@geneplumley4136]

Je suis heureux de vous aider. Merci Marie. Peut-être que votre ami devrait planifier un voyage. Si ce n’est pas pour lui, du moins pour ses petits-enfants. Je suis content que vous ayez aimé la vidéo. 🛶 ☀️ 🌳

[@diane_alworth]

Very cool.

[@geneplumley4136]

Thank you, Diane. It's nice out there. I am going to go downstream this year. I should be able to make it to my favorite restaurant by water. 🛶

[@diane_alworth]

@@geneplumley4136 that’s neat!

[@markleonard-pe3os]

Like going thru a locke system but what a pretty ride !

[@geneplumley4136]

Hey Mark. It's really nice there. I should have done this trip years ago. 🛶

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

When I first started watching you fight the beavers I thought when that guy that owns that canoe comes I hope he will be friendly. Little did I know that was how you got there. Really

[@geneplumley4136]

Hey Paul. Lol, yes, that's the best way to get around the bush if you ask me. 🛶 Cutting trails is a lot of work.

[@EternallyGod]

Always more sticks to be thrown, get at it.

[@marieclaudeetcheverry3067]

Il est 4h20 (am) … je débarque mais promis demain je reprendrai la balade en canoë. Je vais dormir, bercée par le bruit de l’eau et suis sûre de faire de beaux rêves.

[@geneplumley4136]

C'était long, haha. J'ai hâte que le temps plus chaud revienne. 🛶 Dors bien. 😴 💤

[@southernbiscuits1275]

Canada is so beautiful! But, I could never handle the weather. I live in the American South and we already are having seventy degree weather here. A nine mile canoe trip! How do your arms stand it? Thanks for posting this trip, Gene. It was a lot of fun!

[@geneplumley4136]

It really is, 🇨🇦. I don't blame you, it's an acquired taste, 🥶. Sounds nice there, I could handle 70 degrees. Lots of practice, 💪 🛶. Lol. You're welcome, I appreciate all the comments.

[@linato1855]

Gene, the is too damned pretty to FF. I’ll be watching 20 min x 11…😂😂😂

[@geneplumley4136]

😆. Extra coffee breaks for you today....lol.
