Default Wilko, fer crying out loud!!

Some friends of mine paddled the Eagle River in Labrador recently, two
in kayaks and two in OC1's. There are lots of flies, and portages are
difficult. Some other friends paddled the Pinware a few years ago. I
think they ran more rapids -- they didn't have any OC1's. Same trouble
with flies. Someone got sent to the hospital from bites. There's a
river guide book written by Jim Price and another guy (can't remember
the other author or the name of the book) that has some description of
rivers in Labrador.

An article in the most recent edition of Ebb and Flow magazine, the
provincial kayaking association's magazine, is about a couple who
paddled Ungava Bay and the coast of Labrador. You can view the article
from

One my flight back to the US, I flew over Labrador and had my nose
glued to the window. Looks like a very interesting place to paddle.
Anyone with experience there?
