New River Hazards App for Oregon





The Oregon State Marine Board Board (OSMB) has worked with American Whitewater to create a new river obstruction tool for Oregon boaters. This will allow boaters to check for known hazards before paddling rivers in Oregon. The main objective is to address woody debris, if there is another type of unique hazard that you feel is worth tracking, do feel free to report it.


If you are a whitewater boater and would like to view and contribute to the map, follow this link: Oregon Boating Obstructions HUB


You will be able to toggle between “Current Obstructions” to view the map, and “Report An Obstruction” to contribute. To contribute, scan the QR code to download the free app (no log-in needed).






Feel free to send Priscilla (priscilla@recreate-consulting.com) or myself (jacobcruser@yahoo.com) feedback or questions to pass along to the Marine Board. Or, feel free to send an email directly to Brian.PAULSEN@oregon.gov.
