Takelma Gorge

Today’s photo comes from yesterday’s hike along the Rogue River. This place is just an hour and 20 minutes from my home, but it took me 21 years to find it.

October is obviously the best time for this trail. Park at Woodruff Bridge and head south on the Upper Rogue River Trail.

Indigo Creek on the Upper Klamath River at Spring Island

With lots of river rafting opportunities in Southern Oregon, I have found myself on the Rogue River many, many times. A few days ago, I had my first experience on the Upper Klamath River. The rapids were much more intense than anything I have experienced before. If you are an adrenaline junky, this is the river for you.
