River Links

On September 8th the historic estate along the Red River known to generations of paddlers at "The Monastery" was put on the auction block but as bids failed to meet the minimum price the property remains available. AW will be following this issue given the regional importance of this river for paddlers, particularly those just entering the sport, and the need to have safe portage options at the falls that flow through the property.

Working in close partnership with AW since the first flow study on the Pine River in 1991, the Rivers and Trails Program has assisted us in obtaining significant benefits for whitewater recreation through the FERC licensing process. Several projects in the midwest have benefitted from this productive partnership.
