Trip

Elkhorn Rec. Site to Mehama, run # 115 in Soggy Sneakers (4th ed.). This run includes Troll's Teeth Rapids, which can be portaged (or sometimes paddlers who wish to avoid the class 4 drop can put in several miles downstream of Elkhorn at a place just below Troll's Teeth).  Contact Laurie for info on where to meet.

Due to low water, the trip will be moved from Drift Creek, Alsea Drainage, to the McKenzie, either starting at McKenzie Bridge or Ollalie CG.  If interested, contact Al to find out where and when to meet.

 Join Steve on the Little North Santiam River's Opal Creek run: Old Mine to Three Pools, run # 113 in Soggy Sneakers (4th ed.).  If the flow's aren't quite right, then Steve will opt for the Breitenbush River, run # 112 in Soggy.  Be sure to read up on these two class 4 gems to discover what is in store for a paddler on either of these 2 runs.  Contact Steve for meeting time and place.

This is run #22 in the 4th ed. of Soggy Sneakers.  Water flows should be moderately low.  Contact Al for where and when to meet.

Run #116 in Soggy Sneakers.  A class 3+ gem with one class 4 drop (Ricochet) near the start. One may choose to put-in below Ricochet.  A strong combat roll and warm clothing are required. Contact Laurie for details about meeting time and place.
