Torrent River Update (We are getting some Rain!)

October 16, 2007

By Nick Troutman

Well, we are starting to get some rain. That is putting some smiles on our faces.

For the past four days, we haven't been kayaking, just searching for water. After dropping off EJ, Dane, and Joel, the rest of our trip headed to the main land (Labrador) looking for more steep creeking. We took an hour long ferry, drove around for a day, and found a couple sweet creeks with not enough water. Then after several hours of checking weather networks, and another night waiting for rain, we went back to Newfoundland hoping for more rain.

We got back here today, and after a couple hours of driving we found more water on the Torrent River. It was a pretty cool couple ledge falls, with some sweet lines and one not so sweet. There might be a couple broken fingers.

Now we are checking out some sweet options, because it is raining as I am writing! BOO YA!

I'll put up some more updates with some more internet.

Nick

P.S. Darin should be sending in some pictures from the Torrent
