Ross Island Sunset Paddle

This is a beautiful time of day to be out on the water, and Ross Island is a great place to explore, with beautiful views of the city and opportunities to see some wildlife without having to travel far from Portland.

If you can't make it by 5:30 just let me know 6ish is fine, as long as I know when to expect you. Please bring a headlamp or other lights, in case we end up paddling after dark.

All events are beginner friendly unless otherwise specified. Feel free to ask any questions you may have about anything kayak related, as well.

I have extra kayaks (with paddles & life jackets) that I can bring, or bring your own & join us. If I bring a kayak for you, a $25-$40 donation is requested, but if you are facing financial hardship please let me know.

We will meet at Willamette (in Portland, NOT West Linn) near the boat ramp & restroom. After launching, we will cross the river into a protected channel next to Ross Island.

Please dress for the weather and avoid wearing cotton if possible. Also, bringing a change of shoes & pants/shorts is always a good idea, as well as a jacket & extra socks. We may get food & drinks somewhere nearby afterward.
