- Max, Thais, and I came to the lower Madawaska River in low water last August (2020), to run some rapids at that time the water discharge rate of 32.4 m³/s
On this Trip we came out in High water with a discharge rate of 123 m³/s
Almost 4x the water volume which made for some extremely fun rapid runs

Rapids Classification:
Class I - Easy. Smooth water; light riffles; clear passages, occasional sand banks and gentle curves. The most difficult problems might arise when paddling around bridges and other obvious obstructions. classification
Class II - Moderate. Medium-quick water; rapids with regular waves; clear and open passages between rocks and ledges. Maneuvering required. Best handled by intermediates who can maneuver canoes and read water
.
Class III - Moderately difficult. Numerous high and irregular waves; rocks and eddies with passages clear but narrow and requiring experience to run. Visual inspection required if rapids are unknown. Open canoes without flotation bags will have difficulty. These rapids are best left to canoeists with expert skills.
Class IV - Difficult. Long and powerful rapids and standing waves; souse holes and boiling eddies. Powerful and precise maneuvering required. Visual inspection mandatory. Cannot be run in canoes unless the craft is decked or properly equipped with flotation bags. Advance preparations for possible rescue work important.
Loved the edit at 3:50 where you zoned out while getting the rapid pep talk haha.
Lol
Congrats on the 100k. That plaque is your new cutting board lol
Hehe!
The edit on this was incredible, the comedic timing was just *chefs kiss*. Absolutely love how much you've grown as a videography, Xander!
Thanks my man that means alot
Patches is an absolute Queen, she really is the definition of an 'ol reliable.
Congrats on the milestone and beyond. I love watching your videos right before bed. They chill me out.
Wow, 100,000 a year ago and look where you are now! What an amazing channel you have grown. Being engaging and funny is one thing, but being a good filmmaker is totally another. Thank you for all the incredible trips you share with us.

i just did this stretch of the river for canada day. i went solo with no whitewater experience and very limited canoe time. turned out to be one of the best times of my life. you make rifle chute look easy, i opted for the long way around.
Very cool my friend. It's a good little trip eh
@@XanderBudnick yeah, instantly I was hooked and can't wait to do it again
My rule is simple. I see Xander uploads, I leave a like. Congrats again on 100k! Looking forward to 1 billion subs.

This is so fucking cool. Glad you had fun! Keep the videos coming, really enjoy getting inspired.
Such an awesome vidoe, not sure why it has so many less views than the rest. Nice rapids!
Sat down on the couch and busted out the popcorn for this one. Become a weekly routine for me at this point. Keep up the great work xander
Cheers my man glad you're into the content 😊
Congratulations Xando! You earned it! You also made those rapids look too easy. Nice work.

Thanks my friend
5:23 loved the narration 😂
Lol
Fab footage. Awesome!
I love bacon 🥓 and bean 😃 Yummy 😋
Loved the vid. Bought the book twice of the river and still have not done it. However, I have done the Upper portion and had a blast doing so. Definitely will plan on doing it this year (while my fingers are crossed). Stay safe, healthy and keep following your nose. If you ever need an extra paddler for any of your canoe trips, just send me a message and see if we can set something up.
A whole bunch of more water 😮.
