Celebrating Oregon’s Wild & Scenic Rivers
October 9, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
River guide and rafting company owner Zach Collier started dreaming about paddling all 58 of Oregon’s Wild and Scenic Rivers when he moved to Oregon in 2007. With the Wild and Scenic Act marking its 50th anniversary in 2018, his quest took on an approaching deadline. Come hear about the highs, the lows, and the flows from his adventures on Oregon’s high desert rivers.
