Great article about a great walk around a great river.  thanks.
Seems like every time we walk that loop, we meet enthusiastic visitors from around the world, 
Thanks for all the colorful descriptions of that colorful river; and for explaining that Sahalie and Koosah are Chinuk Jargon;  And for explaining about the western path, somehow many  people seem to be  unaware of that side. It is a little rougher and more dangerous though, maybe less safe for small kids, but more interesting and Natural.
Only thing, I kinda miss that old log bridge we used to cross at the north end of the loop;  you always wondered, especially if some kids started bouncing on it, if this would  be the time it would snap and  pitch you in to the roaring blue and white McKenzie below, shooting  you on to Sahalie Falls..
