(Podcast) Eugene, Oregon, and Beyond: Exploring Trails, Lakes and Waterfalls

Season 1 Episode 7 took us a while to finish: turns out traveling and working remotely takes a bit of extra planning…

In this episode, we start exploring around the town of Eugene, Oregon. It’s way too much fun, with gear shops, greenway trails, and breweries. We explore waterfalls and talk a bit about gear… of course.

From biking on the local trails to sailing and paddle boarding, this Oregon adventure gets off to a fantastic start. Let’s dive in!

Brewery: Plank Town Brewery, Springfield, OR.

Watery places we love: Sahalie Falls, the McKenzie River, the Willamette River and Willamette River Greenway, and Waldo Lake.

Apps we use: AllTrails and Trailforks.

Gear shops and outfitters: Backcountry Gear, REI, and Horse Creek Lodge (mountain bikes and much more).

Gear we mention: BOTE and NRS inflatable SUP boards and the Werner Zen SUP paddle; Black Diamond Distance Z and Trail Back trekking poles; Arc’teryx Beta AR rain jackets and Outdoor Research Helium pants; REI Rainwall kids’ jacket and pants; Outdoor Research Ferrosi pants; and Osprey packs.

Thanks for listening!
