At Kelly Point Park in North Portland, Christopher Swain, a hard-core endurance athlete and environmentalist poses in the Columbia River. Swain is going to swim the entire length of the Columbia River, all 1260 miles of it, from British Columbia to the Pacific, past a dozen dams and the Hanford Nuclear Reservation. The trip should take 160 days to complete and he plans to set out next summer, to raise awareness about a variety of water quality issues.
