River Currents is a blog open to the many voices that have a connection with the river and our trips. Here, we share all the various things that go into making a whitewater or bike adventure so richly fulfilling: the science, the folklore, the policies, & the poetry of wildness.
You'll hear from our regular contributors such as Fred Swanson, Sawyer Smith, Jack Stauss, and Rica Fulton. You'll also hear from the voices of guides such as Susan Munroe and Justin Malloy, whose lives have been shaped by their time on the river, and from guests who bring the perspectives that remind us why we're still making these trips happen for 56 years and counting.
