just signed up today (Dec 6th)
don't know what "moved" me to log into the R-pod site; haven't done it for months --
but glad I did.

Looking forward to the event (and the summer calendar is filling up rapidly)

Hey all,

Thanks to those at the recent NW Meetup who gave us advice to join the Good Sams Club. We stopped at a Camping World outlet in Gilroy, CA, and got our membership. We bought some needed items for our rPod, and while we were there Genéte noticed that Camping World carries a complete line of pet-related seatbelts, car seats, crates, and barriers and things to keep your animals safe while traveling in a vehicle. These were points that she stressed in her pet talk at the Cannon Beach RVResort. She hopes that everyone has safe travels with their animals.

Jeff, Genéte and the Bowen Pack

Forgot to say that we really enjoyed meeting Micheline & Ron, who also have a new 180 like ours. It was fun caravanning up to Cannon Beach on Thursday up hwy 101, and it was really cool to explore the tide pools by the Haystack Rock with you. I will process my macro photos from my D4 when I get home and send some to you.

Genéte is going to help me set up a photo website where we can post pics of the trip to the rPod Forum.

Paul, it was nice meeting you guys as well. Give Clem a pat on the head for us!
We are now in Newport, getting gas and some provisions. Yesterday we drove up to Astoria and went over the big bridge so I could show Genéte the Columbia River. We went back south over the bridge again and had lunch at the original Pig & Pancake in Seaside. We stopped in Tillamook at the cheese factory and then drove south to Beverly Beach State Park.
It rained the whole way. Genéte was Not happy with the rain and the wet pine needles that infested the inside of the pod and also Liesel’s fur. She is a neat freak and her OCD was spinning out of control!

Now off to Honeyman State Park.

Stay in touch,

This is some thing I found on the local site:
The trip: Two hours before high tide, launch on the incoming tide at Wheeler. Paddle upstream on the right, exploring Botts Marsh, cross the river and explore the slough on the left.  Continue upstream beneath the U.S. 101 bridge, landing at the public dock in Nehalem for lunch.  As the tide turns, follow the river downstream on the ebb tide and cross the river to Wheeler Marina.  Depending on the tide height, witch is little high due to the moon we might be able to go further than the bridge.  This suggestion is based on renting boats and going with a guide.  We can go further.

The river at Wheeler is not very wide,mostly marsh land.  I've paddled the river a couple of times and around the first bend it slows and only meanders thru the trees and narrows about 2-3 river miles from Wheeler. There are some summer house boats on the river,but I don't recall very many. The weather looks calm, it might be cloudy and cool (60-65) at wheeler and around the first bend might warm to 75-80 later in the morn.  As for the turn of the tide the high tide is measured at Wheeler and this is when the tide turns or ebbs back out to sea.  If some one would like to go out into the bay, down stream from wheeler would suggest launching at lowest tide in the AM and let the current take you back to Wheeler.  I have not been in the bay.  If someone is interested in doing the bay I have several friends that might come down for the bay trip.  Only thinking on the safe side.  I will ask some friends about the bay

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I really want to check out this river.

When does the tide turn? (If you go up the river with the incoming tide, when might the outgoing bring you back?)

I've only kayaked before on mountain lakes. This will be a whole new experience.

Looks like the river is still pretty big at Wheeler. If I wanted to drive further inland and follow the river to find another place to launch from (where the river might be a bit smaller) is there a place I could park my truck? Like a parking area or a city park or something? Looking at the overhead Google Maps photos it looks like the river goes though mostly residential areas.

Thanks,

Looks like Waterfront Park at Wheeler is really the only good place to launch from. Is it safe for kayaks with the power boat river traffic? Concerned about wakes. I have four dachshunds that ride in the kayak with us. Two are adventuresome and ride up on the bow but the other two don't like water and huddle below the gunwales! (They all have doggie life vests.)

Please let me know what you find out about tides and best time to travel up river. This looks like it will be fun. I’ll probably drive to Wheeler and put out from there. Can’t wait for the meetup! My wife made a decal on the Vista Print website for the trip.

Looking forward to the weekend in Cannon Beach.  We arebringing our kayaks to go for a trip on the Nehalem river south of Cannonbeach.  The tides are good for a mid-morning start on the incomingtide.  The Nehalem is a slow running river meandering through theforest.  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.

Thanks for the info on Nehalem River! I was also just reading this page and found it useful. We may or may not bring our boats depending on how long we have for our road trip as part of this roundup. If we don't bring ours, we'll just rent locally. We have two one-person 17.5ft. sea kayaks that seem like they'd be great for this river, and definitely for other places we'd catch long the way back. I'm betting the 16ft Necky would be great too. Here's the link http://blog.oregonlive.com/terryrichard/2010/02/take_a_nehalem_river_paddle_tr.html
