Bending the Wallowa River, Golf Clinic, Invasive Species Rapid (21x6)

Uitzenddatum: Nov 12, 2009

The Wallowa River bends again at the 6 Ranch near Enterprise, Oregon. It had been straight for a century. The ranch sacrificed some pasture to restore the river to a more natural path in order to restore endangered fish. Enjoy a little time on the greens with some enthusiastic golfers with special needs. Invasive garlic mustard and Japanese Knotweed are washing like a tide over the west hills toward the Tualatin River. But one Tualatin basin agency is reaching beyond their jurisdiction and sending foot soldiers out to beat back the invaders before they infest the watershed. Two Portland men create a wildly popular bike ride by going out of their way to make it the most difficult ride in the state.
