There are many wonderful sights along the Milford Rd. This trip we witnessed some intrepid whitewater canoeists. I thought I had done a lot of whitewater work – but not like this.
The guy reckoned this was Grade 3+. I beg to disagree. I have canoed a lot of Grade 3 water in Oz but it was nothing like this, which has to be Grade 4/5, I think.
They were doing an approx 12 minute trip down from the viewing/parking point by the river above the Hollyford Rd (Gunns Camp) down to Marian Creek on that Rd.
I did remark to the young fellow that I would never have got to be 70+ if I had done over-much of this, but it is/was great to watch!
We were both taking video with our still cameras which I have compiled into this presentation. Some ‘runs’ appear twice because we both took them but somewhat differently. I don’t think you will be disappointed though.
