  • A Strategic Plan for Improving Water-Based
    A STRATEGIC PLAN FOR IMPROVING WATER-BASED TOURISM IN OREGON’S MT HOOD TERRITORY submitted to The Destination Marketing Organization for Clackamas County 150 Beavercreek Rd, Oregon City, OR www.mthoodterritory.com submitted by TH MARCH 20 2018 STRATEGIC PLAN FOR WATER-BASED TOURISM IN OREGON’S MT HOOD TERRITORY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1-1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Water is fun. Nearly everyone has experienced the pleasure of a refreshing dip on a hot summer day, the mist of a waterfall, or the thrill of a cliff jump. Some seek solitude by the edge of a lonely stream, others find excitement in extreme whitewater. Youth splash, teens jump, adults wade, but we all look to water for reprieve from our daily routine. Water recreation gives us a chance to see life differently. We test our skills with a fishing rod or a paddle, we relax on a float, and we use water as a medium to gather family and friends. Oregon’s recreational waters are visited 80 million times annually by people looking to swim, fish, surf, sail, paddle or simply sit by the beach. It seems that water is not only essential to life, but to our happiness. People migrate towards water for fun and Clackamas County has a lot of it. Mt Hood Territory, Clackamas County’s tourism marketing organization, initiated this comprehensive study to determine if its water recreation assets are being used to their greatest economic potential. Are the county’s rivers and lakes attracting visitors and maximizing their enjoyment? Are they being managed and marketed in a sustainable manner to increase water-based recreation? Do they generate overnight stays without degrading the environment or the experience? To answer these questions, the county hired Crane Associates of Burlington Vermont, a consulting firm with 20 years of international and domestic experience in environmental economics and sustainable economic development with a specialty in water-based recreation.

He was known by the name of Juan de Fuca, and the name was subsequently given to a portion of the waters he discovered. As far as known he made no official report of his discoveries, but he told navi­ gators, and from these men has descended to us the knowledge thereof. Richard Hakluyt, in 1600, gave some account of Fuca and his voyages and discoveries. Michael Locke, in 1625, pub­ lished the following statement in England. "I met in Venice in 1596 an old Greek mariner called Juan de Fuca, but whose real name was Apostolus Valerianus, who detailed that in 1592 he sailed in a small caravel from Mexico in the service of Spain along the coast of Mexico and California, until he came to the latitude of 47 degrees, and there finding the land trended north and northeast, and also east and south east, with a broad inlet of seas between 47 and 48 degrees of latitude, he entered therein, sailing more than twenty days, and at the entrance of said strait there is on the northwest coast thereto a great headland or island, with an exceeding high pinacle or spiral rock, like a pillar thereon." Fuca also reported find­ ing various inlets and divers islands; describes the natives as dressed in skins, and as being so hostile that he was glad to get away.

Appendix; News Articles and Images 1852-Present 42 Introduction Kellogg Lake has been a central geographical feature in Milwaukie for over 160 years, but today most Milwaukie citizens, even the Lake’s immediate neighbors, have little interaction with it. Technically speaking, Kellogg Lake is a man-made “impoundment” with a surface area of about 14 acres. Originally, Kellogg Creek was dammed to power the Standard Mill in 1858 and it served as a mill pond for about three decades. According to the US Army Corps of Engineers (2002), the original stream channel has become masked deep within the lakebed by about 17,500 cubic yards of sediment that is contaminated above legal standards set by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for both DDT and Chlordane. It has experienced frequent sewer overflows and is the recipient of a significant amount of stormwater runoff from surrounding residential properties, Lake Rd, and McLoughlin Blvd.

    Stitching a River Culture: Trade, Communication and Transportation to 1960 W. R. Swagerty and Reuben W. Smith, University of the Pacific Swagerty & Smith 1 Stitching a River Culture: Communication, Trade and Transportation to 1960 An essay by William R. Swagerty & Reuben W. Smith The Delta Narratives Project Delta Protection Commission, State of California June 1, 2015 California’s Delta California’s Delta is a unique environment, created by the natural drainage of the state’s Sierra Nevada range into the Central Valley, which in turn delivers the runoff of rain and snowmelt into river basins that meander and spill into sloughs, bays, and ultimately the Pacific Ocean. According to environmental historian Philip Garone, “Rising sea levels between six thousand and seven thousand years ago impeded the flow of the lower reaches of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers, creating a labyrinthine network of hundreds of miles of sloughs surrounding nearly one hundred low-lying islands—the historic Delta.”1 Today, the original 738,000 acres of the Delta are among the most engineered lands in the state; and yet, they still have environmental, social, and economic attributes that merit recognition and protection. By the State of California Delta Protection Commission’s own introductory definition: The Primary Zone of the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta (Delta) includes approximately 500,000 acres of waterways, levees and farmed lands extending over portions of five counties: Solano, Yolo, Sacramento, San Joaquin and Contra Costa. The rich peat soil in the central Delta and the mineral soils in the higher elevations support a strong agricultural economy.
