Lining a canoe: Sun Rapid on the Missinaibi

- Using lining to avoid running a rapid.
Note the upstream ends of the canoes were being kept extremely close to the bank. If we were sending the boats out into the current then we would have needed to fit bridles with the ropes going off a point under the upstream end. This will be covered in a future video. It is too easy to lose a boat on a wilderness journey so be careful.
This was on a 12 day wilderness trip with Frontier Bushcraft. It is a Vlog of what we did rather than a full instructional video.

Yeah, you made the right choice. especially when guiding clients down a somewhat remote river.
Yes indeed. Careful is the way.
Just shows how much of a difference the water level can make
Yep. It would have been an easy paddle in higher water.
Just shows what a difference experience makes, the difference between success and disaster in the middle of nowhere,
Many thanks Ray.
Nige.
Ouch Dang! Pine pitch, and duct tape to the rescue!
Quite a bit of duct tape but very doable.
duct tape got me out of a jam with my kevlar canoe in a very remote section of British Columbia years ago. Made proper repairs several hundred kilometres later that held up for the next 5 months of the trip.
