Beautiful Bonaventure River Water

I took this photo at our last campsite on the Bonaventure, on the lower river a few miles upstream from the ocean. When I first saw pictures of this river, the clarity of the water drew me in and I knew I had to paddle it. After several trips it continues to hold a spell over me with it’s beauty. The pool in the photo is 15-20 feet deep on the far side of the boat.

These boats are used by a lot of fishing guides in this region. I’ve always called them a “Y” Stern, based on how the transom is built, but there’s probably a more correct term.

Typos, Etc.
Anything that appears to be an error in spelling or grammar is actually the author’s clever use of the vernacular, and as such is not an error, but rather a carefully placed literary device demonstrating prodigious artistic prowess.
