Second from the right is Keith Reid who we met in Pinawa (which means calm water in Cree). He has paddled, rowed and sailed the Winnipeg River for thirty years and we were lucky to have him join our crew for the day. We paddled up the swifts, rapids and calmer waters for 41 kilometers to the tiny village of Point Du Bois. Keith saved the entire Brigade from a long portage by guiding us right to the base of a spillway at the Slave Falls Dam.
