		<description><![CDATA[After a conversation with Jacob Cruser about posting his life paddling list on his blog, I thought it would be fun to do the same here. I’ve included links to either trip reports on Oregonkayaking.net or guide pages on Oregonpaddling.northwest-rivers.com for additional info. My next post I’ll organize the list into some of my favorite runs and maybe some groupings &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2010/12/22/life-paddling-list/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s no surprise I started wondering about running Elk Cr. Last year, on the way to running the Upper Kalama for the first time, I was a bit awestruck as we crossed the bridge over Elk Cr. and looked down onto ledge after ledge after ledge. The bridge is very high above the creek which makes the setting even more &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2010/11/23/elk-creek-exploratory/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The North, South and Middle Forks of the Smith River are about as close to Oregon as you can get and still be in California. Rugged mountains, smooth granite, clear rivers, warm weather but only about 5 hours from Portland, think of the Smiths as Cali-lite. Our original goal for this trip was the Cal-Salmon. We were looking for redemption &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2010/05/06/the-smiths/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 2009 boating season has been a bit of a bust here in the NW, at least for me.&#160; After pushing the kayaking passion for years now, lots of things (mostly good) are pulling me away from my kayaking time. A low-water El Nino year hasn&#8217;t helped but &#8220;back in the day&#8221; water levels never seemed to be a big &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2010/03/15/just-checking-in/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Happy to have escaped a beat-down below/behind the falls It seems like a long time ago when I first ran Nohorn Cr. It was back in 2001 when I&#8217;d really only started poking around looking for some new runs in the area. Nohorn was a surprise and in hind-sight, we got pretty lucky the first time we did it. &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2009/05/14/nohorn-creek-re-visited/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are a couple Eagle Creeks in Oregon. There is the Eagle Creek in the Columbia River Gorge that has been featured in a number of kayaking videos with big, runnable waterfalls and dramatic gorges. This Eagle Creek flows into the Clackamas River about 6 miles west of the little town of Estacada and contains lots of Class 2-3 rapids &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2009/04/25/upper-eagle-creek/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

The only other time I was in Bend, we ended up doing several other sections and skipped the Riverhouse section of the Deschutes. Other than that, I hadn&#8217;t been back in Bend for boating &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2009/03/25/re-visiting-riverhouse/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Killer Fang section of the Clackamas River has had a fearsome reputation in the past. Perhaps this is due to the 3rd edition of Soggy Sneakers which opened it&#8217;s description with: &#8220;This secluded and scenic run on the Clackamas River is also one of the most dangerous. A perfect roll, reliable equipment, and a competent leader are prerequisites.&#8221; This &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2009/02/20/killer-fang-of-the-clackamas-river/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Portland was virtually shut down for several days around Christmas because of snow.

		<description><![CDATA[Upper Quartzville Creek is one of the classic runs in Oregon. With wonderful water quality, great geology, and fun rapids, boating doesn&#8217;t get much better than this. I remember doing a Upper Quartzville shuttle for some expert boaters back when I first started boating in the early 90&#8242;s; when Upper Quartzville was considered Class 5 territory. Now most boaters consider &#8230; <a class="more-link" href="http://blog.northwest-rivers.com/2008/12/03/upper-quartzville-creek/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
