COCHRANE HILL GOLD PROJECT
Click here to go to our new blog regarding the proposed Cochrane Hill Gold Mine. ************************************************ Paddling the St. Mary's in 2019 Yesterday (April 1 2019) the fishing season began. I did manage to get out for a paddle around the river last night in my kayak and threw my fly line a bit. Although the weather was not great and the water was high it was nice to get out. I want to remind everyone about a few things for the 2019 paddling season. Our data loggers on the river are not up and running yet but soon. The East branch logger has been giving us some difficulty and will be down and out for some time. The West branch logger will be in soon. Note that the level should be 2.5 feet on the logger for paddlers on a West branch paddling adventure. This will give you plenty of water depth for a great trip. Also we have signage for the West branch this year and you will see the access points go up and pool signs throughout the spring and summer. You can find a great map of the St. Mary’s River on Canoe and Kayak Nova Scotia’s webpage or we have hard copies for sale at our IC building. While you’re on the river it’s a great resource. Stop by our Interpretive Center and have a look at our Virtual Map located on the side of the building! This is the one with QR codes on it and should be up soon for the season. I hope you all get a chance to get out on the St. Mary’s this year for a paddle. I added a few maps for your reference as well. You can find these and the data logger live streamed info on our web page under recreation and paddlers paradise. Thanks and enjoy - Scott Beaver ************************************************ Dan MacIntosh from CTV News interviews our president, Scott Beaver. Check out the video from December 20, 2018 |
