Brunch at Rivershore Bar and Grill L2 5-1-22

•  This trip is limited to members with a wet exit certification (except for level 1 trips when the paddler is not using a spray skirt....if the paddler is wearing a spray skirt on a level 1 paddle, the Wet Exit Certification is REQUIRED).  To successfully register you will need to sign into your OOPS member account, and your account will need to be a member of the "Wet Exit Certified" group if you intend to wear a spray skirt.  Your acceptance is conditional on approval by the Organizer, who may contact you with questions about your skills and equipment.  If the measured water temperature is different enough from that listed below to warrant a change in required immersion protection, the Organizer will contact all participants and the Trips Board member with the update at least a day before the trip.
  

Activity Title: Brunch at Rivershore Bar and Grill L2 5-1-22
Date of Activity: 5/1/2022
Narrative: We will meet at the Cedaroak Boat ramp and try to be on the water by 9:30 am. Paddle upriver to the Rivershore Restaurant and have brunch. After brunch we can paddle up past the Oregon City bridge and get a closer look at the falls. This about a 10-mile paddle round  trip. There will be some current no more than 2 mph for a short distance. Otherwise, it will be a mellow paddle. Most of the main courses at the River Shore bar and Grill are less than $20.00. This is a paddle that most paddlers will be able to handle. If you have questions email me. How can you go wrong with paddling and food?
