Tshletshy Creek, WA
Tshletshy Creek had been on my mind for 10 years. It was one of those trips that seemed to be just far enough out of reach each year and hard enough logistics that most paddlers wanted to wait and hear how it was from someone else. Tucked away in the Olympic National Park, this trip …

Little White video update
After a great Skookumchuck session, a few new Washington creeks, and about 8 days of rain we found ourselves drying out in Hood River OR. Hood River is one of my favorite places in the US. Basically for me this is because of two reason’s. One being the Green Truss section of the White Salmon …
