Canoeing the Columbia River

Mike Thomas Photos, Revelstoke

We took a short May Long Weekend paddle down the Columbia River from Revelstoke. We averaged over fast and cold 8.5km/hr, so you had to keep your eyes open for snags!

  • I’ve always wanted to paddle that part of the river. Revelstoke is a little piece of paradise!

    • I didn’t get any photos from the trip down stream, only when things quietened down! In another month or so, Arrow Lakes will probably back up for the summer and this will all be a lake that we’ll be paddling on again.
