  • Great work @americanwhitewater #freeflowingrivers #nomoredams regram @americanwhitewater This dam is coming down! Next week we'll start to see a section of Sullivan Creek that has been under a reservoir for 111 years. It took a decade of hard work and creative thinking among a great group of people to get to this point. American Whitewater played a significant role in negotiating this dam removal, and we are excited to watch the progress this fall. Excavators are in place at the Mill Pond Dam in Northeastern Washington, poised to begin chipping away at the 50-foot tall dam on Tuesday, September 12th, 2017. Removing the concrete dam, and an older log-crib dam under the reservoir is expected to take a couple months. While normally dam releases from Sullivan Dam provide predictable paddling releases each fall in the gorge below the dams, this year, and possibly next year, flows will be managed to flush sediment from the reservoir as it is drained in pulses up to 600cfs. We advise paddlers not to paddle Sullivan Creek this fall. It will be interesting to see what rapids are exposed under the reservoir, and what the sediment flush does to the sediment-starved gorge downstream. | 📷 courtesy of Rebecca Sherman, Hydropower Reform Coalition
  • A great evening followed by a better morning in the wilds of the Snowdonia National Park. #nationalparksunderthreat #nationalparksmatter #wildcampinguk #snowdonianationalpark
  • Climbed Ireland's highest mountain, which was stunning, only to find a pile of single use water bottle snap-off caps at the top. Fast becoming my most frequently seen bit of plastic waste. @surfersagainstsewage @trashfreetrails @patagonia #refillforvictory #jointheresistance #plasticfreecoastlines #andmountains #nationalparksmatter #nationalparksunderthreat

  • Another shot of our 2012 first and last descent of the Amne Machin Gorge, Yellow River, China. 2/3 of all the world's rivers have at least one of the 50,000 large dams built in the last hundred years or so blocking their natural flow. The Yellow is no exception. The rapid above destined to become the bed of a man-made lake. @intlrivers @patagonia #saveourrivers #nomoredams
