When signaled\, swimmers jump off the Sternwheeler into the Columbia and swim an approximately 1.1-mile stretch across to Cascade Locks. To help them find their way\, a special swim lane lined with volunteers in sailboats\, kayaks\, and paddle boards are there to guide\, encourage\, and protect swimmers as they cross the channel. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAges 10 & up may participate\nAges 10-14 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian \nCheck in: 6:00-7:15am | Boat begins loading at 7:15 am.\n8am start time. \n\n\n\n\nRegister HERE! \nSafety equipment:\nNew this year\, all swimmers are required to swim with a tow buoy.
