6/4/2022 - Tualatin River, Farminton Paddle Launch, Hillsboro, OR

Time: 2.87 hours

Distance: 9.6 miles

We once again put into the Tualatin River at Farmington Paddle Launch. The day was cool and rainy and remained so through the trip. The river was considerably higher than most of the times we'd paddled it but down at least ten feet from our last trip on it in early winter. We paddled up-river for several miles before turning back. In the entire trip we only came across one other lone kayaker.
