Happy NRG Students on Vancouver Lake.

Dave Hoffman is getting ready for a HUGE group of kayakers to go for a paddle up to Willamette Falls.  This effort was coordinated by eNRG Kayaking and Oregon Active.  It was a great kayak program.

This is a great shot of all the kayakers in the locks.  It is amazing how much water they hold back.  The industrialized zone is hardly the landscape that Lewis and Clark marked as the end of the Oregon Trial.  Its amazing what humans can do to build up an area around such a historical site.
