Looking forward to the weekend in Cannon Beach.  We are bringing our kayaks to go for a trip on the Nehalem river south of Cannon beach.  The tides are good for a mid-morning start on the incoming tide.  The Nehalem is a slow running river meandering through the forest.  Always a lot of bird life and other forest creatures.


We have a 16ft two-man Necky (Canadian made) lake kayak that is very stable. Would it be good for the Nehalem River? We usually take it to the Sierras a put out on the small lakes and reservoirs. I'd like to take it with on this August trip to Oregon and this post caught my eye.

We got reservations for the Cannon Beach rPod Meetup! Yay! Can't wait. We will have our new 180 there, pulled by my 2011 Tacoma V6 PreRunner.

Hi there. Welcome the life of R-Poding. We have 2 Hobie Mirage Outbacks. I have an 2008 Toyota Trunda Crewmax Cab. We them on Thule Rack with the Thule Hullavator. I'm 67 so it's great to get them on and off. No back pain. And yes, we will have them with us at the Pacific NW Round-up. The Thule Hullavator are costly but worth it if you are going to put them on top of your cab. The other option is a lumber rack and put them on that. See you in August.

Hi — I would like to bring my kayaks as well, they are “touring” type — basic.  I was wondering how you are hauling them.  I have a Ford F-150 2X4 super cab and was considering getting a Yakima rack.  Any suggestions are welcome.  I am looking forward to the round-up — I am a new Rpod owner and want to learn as much as I can from other owners.

You should call the RV Park ASAP and register.  I believe they may be down to 2 or 3 spaces.  I expect we will have 45 R-pods attending and about 5 other either smaller or larger RVs.  If you are successful in signing up, be sure to email me directly the requested information.

Good luck!

Hi,  I'm wondering if you still have space in the roundup and if the "friends" are bringing trailers other than R-Pods.  I may be able to talk my traveling partner into coming but she has a casita.

Sounds great! We're bringing our kayaks too (and my binoculars, which I never leave home without.)

Well this gives me almost 5 months to learn to cook (or snazz up) something besides what my loyal relatives and friends eat that I make. The good news is that I love cast iron and will have ours with us.
