May 15, 2010 at 9am to May 16, 2010 at 7pm
The Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival was started in 1984 by the Northwest Rafter's Association (NWRA). It's a weekend of fun, exciting, and safe whitewater activities. This year marks the 27th anniversary of this great tribal gathering.
The miss…
Thank you all! Jimmy's memorial service will be tomorrow. It is supposed to be a beautiful sunny day. After the service we are all going to paddle one of Jim's favorite local runs. I will be leading the group in Jim's boat. Thanks again for your wel…
Rob,
So sorry to hear the news. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your friends. It's tragedies like this that bring whitewater communities and friends closer together. Let us know if you need anything and we're always here to talk.
Nice video!
My condolences, Rob. I'm so sorry for your loss - I hate it every time I hear something like this happened.
Know that you've got a great community of fellow river-lovers here if you need us.
You're in my thoughts and prayers.
Rob,
I'm really sorry to hear about the loss of your friend and mentor. The world can be a horrible place sometimes. I know that you will serve his memory well by saving others with the knowledge he taught you. Your friend and his family will be in…

My friend and mentor Jimmy "Oboats" O'Brien
No kidding. My mentor and coach says there is a sea-kayak group here. They go to sapelo and cumberland island. They have no real rescue skills. He won't paddle w/them. He has a warning on his website. Be careful who you do these trips with. If your…
Rob, I am so sorry to hear that. My prayers are with you and the paddler's family and friends. *hugs*
Debbie- Find a swiftwater course and get in it! I took a swiftwater training course in 2002, and thoroughly appreciate the skills I learned. Other…
Rob, sorry to hear that you lost someone close to you. I've yet to experience that in whitewater, though figure it's just a matter of time, meeting more river buddies, and more people enjoying more difficult water. Prayers for his family and you.
@…
Thank you for verifying that. I once met a guy who worked for the coast guard. He said that their attitudes would change if they spent only a couple hours with search and rescue. I just wanted to make my point. I didn't mean to get personal. I am a…
Debbie, thank you for your response. You are talking to the right guy. I'm a firemen, a member of a swift water rescue team and a member of a high angle rescue team. SAFETY MATTERS!!! I have been involved in many rescues and body recoveries. We alwa…
Was he kayaking or riverboarding?
This brings up safety and rescue. I'm going to try not to get on my soapbox and still ask a question. I tried to bring up the subject on my club kayak board. I got a flippent response
that I didn't understand. Late…
While at work tonight my wife called and said the state police had called looking for the next of kin of my good friend and paddling mentor. He had an accident paddling today and died on the river. Two paddlers with him risked their lives to try and…
