In the early to middle part of the summer, the pacific northwest is the place to be in the USA. After most of the rest of the country has run out of water, the cascade mountains still have plentiful options due to the glacial and spring fed rivers. In the heart of the cascades is the columbia river gorge, which hosts a massive variety of different rivers and waterfalls flowing from both sides of the gorge, off Mt Hood on the Oregon side and Mt Adams on the Washington side. Here is a little video of some of my favorite drops I got to run this summer! Even though this was a very low water year out here, and the southeast had the most epic summer paddling conditions ever, I am still very glad to have made the move out here and been able to experience a ton of new rivers of different styles, run some sweet waterfalls, and do some traveling as well.
