River Awe – 24th November 2024

Paddlers: Chris, Iain and Mags

The trip almost didn’t happen today as there was so much snow yesterday I thought I would have to cancel it, however, the forecast for today promised mild, dry weather with even some sun, so we decided to risk it and luckily we were blessed with a beautiful day!

The Awe turned out to be on a slightly bigger release than usual but still okay for us to run, and Chris and Iain took it in their stride. The water was more powerful and eddying out challenging, but the rocks were less exposed making the rapids less technical.

The Magnetic Rock rapid was particularly big and bouncy and Chris and Iain made the most of it by coming down twice!

The photos were taken towards the end of the river when we were able to relax and paddle gently into Loch Etive.

Another excellent day on the river!
