In about 3 weeks I'll be going to get my new Bratt Timberwolf 19', which has a 79 gallon tank.

Nice boats!

Nice boats!

Thanks.
I spent way too long agonizing over the brand to get, then the model and size. Finally made a choice and went with the 19' Timberwolf, 6.2 liter V8, Hamilton 212, full camper top, heater, large garmin touch screen, etc.

Nice run from the trunk road to the dam yesterday. Water is nice and clean.

How was the water level?

 

[snoflake]

Fairly High I would guess. I have been up there with a lot less water in the past.

was a bit dirtier on the little red deer but still good fun.

Boat launch at Saunders is accessible now. A bit of slushy snow by camp Alexo.

Anyone been on any section of the NSR from Drayton East to Edmonton lately?

 

[neilsleder]

Yah pretty much been that whole stretch. Water is high pretty easy sailing. Can explore some some channels that aren’t normally there if you want. But a good trip

 

[NoBrakes!]

Hoping to get out Saturday and Sunday... need some sun tho...

Anyone run the NSR from West of Abraham lake to the park boundary?

 

[174mcx]

Yup. Lots. Very beautiful but make sure and figure out where the park boundary is, they would love to catch people past it and close that stretch. Short run, some braided, mostly spectacular views.

 

[06 Dragon]

Thanks, where do you launch out there?

 

[neilsleder]

There’s a spot off the highway you can launch. Preachers point I think they call it? Then just drive across the lake.

 

[Chrisco]

Or drive into the dam and cross it and down on your right is a launch, then across the lake.

 

[06 Dragon]

Did the launch at the dam and boat across Abraham. It was the usual windy and rough water trip all the way across the lake until we got into the river. Some very nasty swells! We did see people camped out along the river fairly close to the highway, possibly preachers point?
