The next few days paddling through the playeau were a bit of a slog. The weather was overcast and the river was slower so we had to paddle harder to make our miles. At our next campsite a big thunderstorm came through and thereafter the river was a murky brown colour.
Typical view of Peel Plateau
We were often paddling into a headwind with the rain driving into our faces.
Even when the river was not braided it meandered back and forth, slowing our progress.
Typical cold and foggy morning
We amused ourselves by collecting interesting rocks when we stopped for breaks.
One lunchbreak we lit a stump on fire and huddled around it to keep warm.
