The Deschutes River, Oregon
For your trip on the Lower Deschutes River we will launch from Heritage Landing, just outside of The Dalles, Oregon. Heritage Landing is a popular launch that provides access to the Deschutes and Columbia Rivers.
Heritage Landing is located off I-84, 17 miles E of The Dalles, Oregon.
We will be waiting for your group at the beach in a 26 foot, red, North River Jet Sled.
There are restrooms at this launch site. There is usually cell service but it is sporadic as we head up the river.
Our Great Outdoor Adventures are designed to impart the beauty, culture and artistry of the Great Pacific Northwest. We will provide a selection of local wines and cheese, fruit, crackers and bread to enjoy when we stop at some of the beaches on our way up the river. For those that are under 21 or prefer not to drink alcohol we will have a selection of locally crafted non-alcoholic beverages and bottled water available for your enjoyment.
We will also provide Class IV Life Vests for everyone to wear. Please make us aware of any children that will be on the trip so that we have the correct number of smaller Life Vests on hand.
Things you might want to bring for your trip:
- Camera
- Video Camera
- Sun Glasses
- Sun Clothing
- Water Shoes
- Jacket
We look forward to providing you with an adventure you’ll remember for a lifetime.

Grant Putnam and Christina Carpenter
