Classic Corsica

The classic bedrock  Amphitheatre, Travo River

With fingers crossed we headed out to Corsica, and were lucky to hit the notoriously fickle water levels at perfect flows. 

I was joined by Matt Tidy, ´The Boy´Jake Holland, and the Italian paddler X, Daniele Tira.

It proved to be a chilled mission on a stunning Island, cruising down several of the numerous bedrock classics, that have made Corsica famous as the birthplace of steep creeking.

We need a probe! Send in ´The Boy´!
