Ultimate XC – Paddle forecast is… rough.
The late afternoon brought a stiff breeze towards the Tremblant village. Along with the wind, 1 foot rolling waves turned the lake into a challenging venue for testing out the borrowed and rented boats. I could barely hold myself steady while Allen powers through the waves trying to surf towards the beach. Meanwhile, the kite boarders were carving large arcs back and forth enjoying what I would only presume to be great conditions for a wind powered sport. Many thanks to my sister Karina for letting Allen borrow her boat, and for EMS friend, and sometimes foe ;-) Jennifer Shultis for bringing it to us.
