Gorge Kayaker Hopes To Make Waves With New Film

By Dan Richardson, 2-01-06

Nate Herbeck moved to Hood River for the water. The white water, that is. Now, having shot his first kayaking film,Liquid Insanity, Herbeck is highlighting the best local pools, runs and falls. Herbeck's 40-minute film debuts at River City Saloon in Hood River on Friday, Feb. 18 at 7 p.m., and it’s free.

Herbeck and cohorts also post a wicked whitewater web site, with photos and trip reports on their kayak adventures from around the region. They've run a number of Gorge creeks and rivers, including some you've probably never heard of.

We're all for local film around here, so go, check out Liquid Insanity and its creators.
