Paddling Oregon

Rating:
Summary: Great Oregon Boating Reference Book
Review: Paddling Oregon -along with Soggy Sneakers- are the two definative guide books about Oregon boating.

Paddling Oregon has a well-organized desciption of multiple runs of 92 different rivers. Included in each overview is information about the character, location, gradient, class and skill level and a list of appropriate craft for the run. Information about potential shuttle sources is also included.

Paddling Oregon is a comfortable format and easy-to-read narrative which provides great details and provides a good feel for the river.

The one criticism I have is the book fails to provide useful maps for use on the river.
