Where are you putting in and how long are you planning to be out?

I paddled down the French last summer. Good 9 day trip with about 3 days just 
on the bay. I did it as a councillor for a camp.


Have you paddled the French before? The thing has one hell of a headwind 
almost all day (from about 10 am to 5 or 6 pm) and _NO_ current to speak of 
except at rapids. We couldn't shoot those due to legal reasons... the kids 
portaged, we shot.

I wish you lots of fun on your trip.
