ADVENTURE IN SAFETY
Kayaking course with Totem Adventure
The Kayak is definitely ' the essence of the River", but it takes a little longer before it starts in the big rapids.
We start where the water is calmer, generally at Lake La Salle. The first objective is to become familiar with the kayak and 'go straight'. Once you have mastered this, generally within an hour or so, we move on to where the water is rougher, to the first currents entering the lake.
KAYAKING COURSE
Tandem Kayak Experience with Totem Adventure
Pre-departure briefing to get familiar with the kayak and when the guides see that you are ready, we go to run the real rapids.
The same waves that you have seen in a raft are much bigger in a kayak.
