    Oregon - Columbia River Gorge

    We are set out to Oregon in 2 weeks to hit up some canyoneering in the Columbia River Gorge. I myself have not been canyoneering there yet but a couple members of my group have been. We are not sure exactly what canyons we are going to run yet & I am curious if anyone has any suggestions :) Thank you for any input. Much appreciated.

    My group has run Munra Creek & Eagle creek so far. We want to add something that they have not yet done.

    Take a look at http://ropewiki.com/Columbia_River_Gorge

    Several canyons are set with reference pictures and Waterflow analysis so you can find out how high/low they are BEFORE you go and then double check once there.

    In the gorge Tanner Creek is the king of canyons, but it's extremely technical, recommended ONLY for expert class C canyoneers.

    Oneanta is nice and doable even in monster flow, Dry Creek is good too if it has a good flow but dangerous if too much. Bridail Veil can be fun, but at high water be very careful.

    If you can afford the drive, Lewis, Big Creek and Davis in Washington are some of the best you will find. I run them 2 or 3 weeks ago at high flow, should be good now unless it has rained recently.
