Emily Pearlman, river guide for ARTA River Trips

It’s not good to anthropomorphize rivers, but if it was, we’d talk about how the Rogue and Emily could be twin sisters. They’re both warm and gentle, but still impetuous. They’re both friendly and unassuming, but still deep. They’re both reliable and approachable, but still surprising. Sure, the Rogue didn’t grow up in Santa Barbara, go to UC Berkeley, earn a degree in Genetics, or write articles about CRISPR for the Berkeley Scientific Journal, (and Emily isn’t 215 miles long), but otherwise: twins!
