An epic weekend adventure along the Upper Magnetawan River in Ontario. Alex had the opportunity to paddle with a couple of celebs that you might recognize. Brad Jennings and I arrived at Jim Baird's place on Friday night when we ran shuttles and got our gear organized. We wanted to be on the river Friday night but because it took us so long to get shuttles going, we used the night to have some drinks and catch up.

Saturday morning we hit the river for an epic day on the water. The river was gushing, flows were high, and the stoke was real. I had a blast paddling this river and I am looking forward to paddling the Magnetawan again in the future.
