(See www.mita.org ) > >Mark Lane hi mark, and thanks for the welcome. when we did cobscook bay, we went up past the outlet that leads to reversing falls. you could hear them thundering in the distance (these aren't falls with a huge drop..not at all...the currents are so strong tho, it SOUNDS like a huge drop) and i wouldn't go ANYWHERE near the reversing falls no way no how!!!! (wimpy? YEP!) i have done more canoeing than kayaking at this point, and i have been mostly on lakes and rivers all over the state. somes sound was a fun kayak though....cobscook and all the nosy seals was truly a kick! heading up to the forks today and heaven only knows where i shall paddle!!! weebee (p.s. yes i am familiar eith mita!) *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************
