Gemrod,

You'll enjoy your trip to the NW. I'm located in the Albany area (about 70 miles south of Portland) and it would be a pleasure to show you around the area. I also spent a number of years on the North Umpqua in southern Oregon. The NU was Zane Grey's favorite river for summer steelhead. Let me know if you want to get together to wet a line.
