Show Notes

In March of 2021, three women launched a source to sea expedition on the Sacramento River in California.  In this new episode, we talk for 25 minutes with the crew at mile 153 and hear about how the river has changed once they left the mountains and was impounded behind a few different dams.  They call themselves Sacramento Source to Sea.  They skied on snow to get to their river launch and began paddling downriver.  We interviewed them before they launched in episode 16, Mile 0 Sacramento River Source to Sea. They are now low in the Central Valley meeting river people in river towns to learn about how modern day communities engage with this river that irrigates farms and ranches that feed America.  They will paddle through the capital of California, Sacramento, and switch from pack rafts to sea kayaks and continue paddling on the salt water to the Golden Gate Bridge.  We will interview them again as their trip progresses.
