The Muddy Goose

New Release!

ROLL THE DICE! CHASE THE GOOSE!

FACE DEATH, & UNLOCK THE WEIRD NORTHWEST!


From the Neskowin Ghost Forest to Desolation Peak, the Northwest is bigger — and far stranger — than you know! 

Join 24 Oregon and Washington based creators for a romp through iconic and soon-to-be-iconic grottos and vistas in our evergreen, mud-puddled, and sometimes very spooky backyard. In the Muddy Goose Guide to the Weird Northwest, you are invited to experience these landmarks and hidden gems in three ways: through stories and poems as eclectic and unexpected as the northwest itself, by rolling dice with your friends to play the board game on the front cover of this book, and by lacing up your boots and going out to see the sights for yourself.


Learn the Fremont troll’s riddles— and then take a selfie!

Discover what dwells in the dark of the Oregon Caves— then shine your own light into the shadows!

Within these pages you will find daring quests and tranquil reflections, stories to delight and tales to terrify. The northwest is far more than your expectations and we are delighted to share our decidedly weird take on it with you!
