Full Name: Dennis Pennell

Narrative: This will be a chance to paddle mid-week on a lovely section of the Willamette River. We will launch from Rogers Landing boat ramp. This ramp has a parking fee, I think it is $3 payable by VISA/MC.

We will paddle upstream to Ash Island, then up the channel between Ash Island and the northwest shoreline. After Ash Island, we will continue upstream, likely to the confluence with the Yamhill River. Lunch up near the Yamhill River confluence, then a return to Rogers Landing in the main channel of the Willamette.
