SYNOPSIS:
The classic whitewater run from Traverse to McManus along the Petawawa River in Algonquin Park has been on my bucket list since I got into whitewater canoe trips. Adding a little twist to this trip, it was also going to be my first time running the whitewater solo in my own canoe. The nerves were high, but I had a great group of friends to do it with. This section of Algonquin Park is unlike any other area and is now one of my favourite sections of the park.
