11/24/2022 - Multnomah Channel/Willamette River, Sauvie Island Boat Ramp, Sauvie Island, OR

Time: 2.95 hours

Distance: 10.05

We put into Multnomah Channel at the Sauvie Island Boat Ramp on Thanksgiving morning. We paddled up-stream to the Willamette River then up river for a while longer before turning back. The day was cool but bright and sunny and there was no river traffic which made for a very pleasant paddle.
