Members of the Grand Ronde Canoe Family carry ulXayu down the boat ramp at Clackamette Park in Oregon City for the start of their Willamette River Paddle on Monday, July 20. The boat ramp at the park was closed for safety reasons, so the canoe had to be carried to be placed in the Willamette River.
