Sunday Double Reel...'Daily Reel...'Sea to Source Episode 2: Astoria to Hood River'

On August 2nd we left Astoria, OR on our journey to the source of the Columbia River. We are paddling for the Salmon and for the people of the Columbia River. We are paddling to get some fish passage over Grand Coulee and Chief Joseph Dams, and to bring the Salmon back to the Upper Columbia River. Follow us at facebook.com/VoyagesofRediscovery, and if you are interested in donating for a DVD or even a paddle that has traveled this journey with us, you can send an email to xander@theriverschool.org.

Daily Reel...'Sea to Source Episode 1: The Fish Ladder'

Why are there no Salmon in the Upper Columbia River? What can we do about that? What are the options?

In this first episode, we explore the ongoing discussion of salmon passage (Fish Ladder) at the Grand Coulee and Chief Joseph Dams. We hear from tribal members, fishery biologists, and the crew of Voyages of Rediscovery as they prepare for their journey up the Columbia River, honoring the historic and once prolific salmon runs up the Columbia River.
The mission is to paddle up the Columbia River from Sea2Source in 5 salmon inspired dugout canoes carved by 1000s of students who had salmon removed from their cultures by the creation of the grand coulee dam.
Now We paddle for the Salmon.
