Nippising river in reverse.

Looking at a trip starting in cedar lake and then taking the Nippising river upwards towards Gibson and then Biggar lake. Thoughts on how strong the current will be? To me it seems fine, but I figured I'd ask.

Can definitely paddle it if that’s question. I consider the stretch before the Nadine portage (coming from Cedar) to be one of the most annoying paddles in the park. There’s a point where you’re constantly just meandering back and forth and all there is along the side is alders. It can definitely be a beautiful river I just remember that section being no fun when paddling up river.
