Ottawa River Photo Update

Ever since I first came to the Ottawa River five years ago I’ve been drawn back to the warm water and amazing play. With two different channels that share the same put-in and take out there is honestly something for every paddler.

Having a moment on Corner Wave

Lately the Ottawa has been sitting at a level around -1, which makes for some of the worlds best play. The variety of the river is amazing, big waves, little waves, big holes little holes. A great place to train and a great place to spend the summer. I’m not going to ramble much more, I’ll let the pictures do the talking. All photo’s by Bryan Kirk.
