Petite boucle Chochocouane (#61) | ||||
This advanced level circuit includes 11 canoe-camping sites at approximately 6 km intervals. |
||||
Length | Approximate duration | Boat launching | Proposed direction | Portage |
69 km (loop) | 5 days (4 nights) | Lac Elbow additional campground | Clockwise |
|
Points of interest: the loop circuit offers the advantage of greater accessibility and less time lost in transportation. The circuit is very diversified. At the beginning, you will canoe on a small river, then you will cross a series of small lakes, explore meanders, then join Rivière Chochocouane to finish by going up Rivière Canimiti. Beautiful waterfall downstream from Lac Epau. Difficulties: the circuit requires paddling against the current at 31 km; however, the current is perceptible at 10 km and it may be difficult to ascend at high water. There are portages for each rapids encountered, except for 2 whitewater segments (fording); 1 Class I rapids; and 1 beaver dam. Downward (direction of flow):
|
* Type A portage: a portage that either connects two waterways or avoids obstacles, such as Class III or higher rapids, falls, weirs, impassable segments, dams, and rapids encountered against the current.
* Type B portage: a portage that avoids Class I and II rapids.
