Tigard area Paddlers’ dream on Tualatin River

Water trail taking shape with first new launch sites

By Steve Law, Pamplin Media Group, Feb 16, 2012

Nick Fochtman / Pamplin Media Group The Munger site is one of two being considered for a new boat launch on the Tualatin River.

The Munger site is one of two being considered for a new boat launch on the Tualatin River. Recent snow melt and rain caused the waters to bulge.

Kayakers and canoers paddling the Tualatin River through Tigard and Tualatin often are amazed to discover this scenic little gem in the midst of suburbia.

But it’s not so easy continuing upstream of the Highway 99W Bridge in Tualatin, just as the river gets wilder and meanders through the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge. There are no easy ramps to enter or exit the river — and no public restrooms — for the next 27 miles, until Hillsboro’s Rood Bridge Park.

It’s no fun being up a river without a paddle, but if you can’t enter a river you can’t paddle at all. And if you do paddle this stretch of the Tualatin, you may not want to venture far, lest “nature calls” in a different way.

The once-polluted Tualatin River has been gradually restored during the past half-century. For much of that time, kayakers and canoers have dreamed of creating a Tualatin River Water Trail, to provide easy access to the river all the way from Hillsboro to West Linn, where it feeds the Willamette River.
