Massif fun all round!

Myself and Jon Davies have recently returned from guiding one of Flowfree’s Steep Long Weekends in the Massif Central in Southern France. We had a real range of weather from pleasantly hot to sideways “coffee shop” rain. Starting off with some classic bedrock on the middle Tarn, we also paddled the fantastic upper Borne, Mimente and a section of the Upper Ardeche. High water levels scuppered our plans for a run on the upper Tarn, so we made do with some fantastic alpine-style boating to round off the long weekend. Keep your eyes open for next year’s trip, coming Easter 2010….But for now I’ll let the pictures tell the story…
