which rivers have you been on?

[toobfreak]

Probably the American, Consumnes, Mokelumne, Tuolumne, and Merced rivers as well, eh, or don't you get that far south?

Love the Tuolomne river as it passes through the Grand Canyon of Yosemite.

 

[Concerned American]

How did the Youghiogheny, Chesapeake, Colorado, and Monongahela rivers miss your attention?

As well as the Hudson, Susquehanna, Shenandoah and Green rivers. He also left out the Yangtze, Yellow, Pearl and Yalu rivers.

Love the Tuolomne river as it passes through the Grand Canyon of Yosemite.

Not sure I know where you're referring to. The Tuolumne rises in Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite and runs out of the park through Rainbow pools and down past Groveland and Big Oak Flat, but I don't know of any major canyons in the park that it flows through. It runs through Hetch-Hetchy reservoir (used to be a twin to Yosemite Valley) until they flooded it to provide SF with water in 1915. That act was said to have broken John Muir's heart and lead to his eventual demise. I have spent many great summers on Lake Don Pedro on the Tuolumne, water skiing and camping. Great memories. Wow, I had never heard of the Grand Canyon of Yosemite before. I just looked it up. Not well publicized.

As a Kid most likely , Grew up in Culver City / Beverly Hills but remember driving to places like Reno / Tahoe and Mammoth and the sequoia Park and as a youngster did a lotta dirt biking in Tulare/ Kettleman area if that’s where some of those are

Yep, you've crossed all that I listed plus the Kings and the Stanislaus

 

[cnm]

no names for these rivers?...

The Mohaka and the Waikato respectively. I've been on this one too, the Wairoa...

 

[cnm]

Now I think of it, I've been on this river too, the Kaituna.

 

[cnm]

Actually, it's quite amusing to recall the rivers on which I’ve paddled, rowed, outboarded, sailed or drifted.

And this one.

where is it?

 

[ShahdagMountains]

I’ve just recently returned from the Saône and the Rhône. Breathtaking!

Been up and down the Rhine countless times, and the Neckar.

Did a nice cruise on the Potomac once. And some other US river, l’ve forgotten the name. There was a castle on a hill en route.

And the Thames of course. All the way to Windsor.

Sure, it is right down from the Tuolumne Meadows. Here's a picture I took of it back in 1982. The Tuolumne cuts right through it.

I forgot about the Neckar--I've been across that one as well. Others I forgot was the Rogue river in southern OR and the Deschutes in central/north OR.

Only here in Florida. St. Johns, Suwannee and other small ones like the Big and Little Econlocahatchee

I didn't count the rivers I drove over, only the ones I've either swam in or boated on.

Mississippi was a riverboat from New Orleans, Seine was a dinner cruise, Hudson was a few booze cruises, Delaware is swimming/wading/canoe/tube, St Lawrence was a boat under Niagra falls.

For driving over the Mississippi river on a Trailways bus and a few other between Orlando and the Colorado Rockies.
Folks on the Bus chuckled and grinned at me seeing the Mississippi for the first time crossing a narrow bridge between Tennesse and Kentucky.
