After the Rains: Feeding the Wallowa
Many of the images taken during river trips are of dramatic scenes that come and go quickly, usually because the light is changing fast or because I am shooting from the raft as we float downstream. Then, there are moments like this, where I have plenty of time to study what I am shooting, experiment…

Wallowa and Grande Ronde River — Minam, OR to Boggan’s Oasis, WA

Northern Scorpion at Camp in the Owyhee
Scorpion at camp on day 2. It was not a concern, we were just happy to be camping somewhere that wasn’t infested with ticks (most I’ve ever seen) after the first night on the river. This is the Northern Scoprion, not known to sting humans and less venomous than other species. Owyhee River. Oregon. May…

Oregon Rattlesnakes and Encounters in River Canyons
While the coastal areas are too wet for rattlesnakes and the mountains above 6,000 ft too harsh, Oregon does have two subspecies of the Western Rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis). The Northern Pacific Rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis oreganus) can be found from the Klamath/Siskiyou Mountains to the Northeastern corner of the state and is often relatively small, green…
