Paddling to the headwaters of the Willamette

Looking upstream from the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River

As is our tradition in closing out summer, we spent several days last week camping at Waldo Lake.  This year, between mountain bike rides,  William and I squeezed in a kayak trip across the lake to the starting point of the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River.  The shot above was taken as I slowly drifted downstream at the head of the river.  Really cool spot on a beautiful day.
