      <description><![CDATA[I have added major edits to the original post, to clarify and make it more explicit.    

You can access your older reports and those of anybody else in several ways.  
Reports for a specific river are always listed at the bottom of the flow tab.   
Every photo will have a link to a report.   There will be small buttons under the thumbnail or on the photo's detail page.    Unfortunately, many people are still uploading multiple photos as individual reports rather than linking them in one report.
The most recent reports are also accessible via the AW menu.   Look under: River info/recent river reports.  
http://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/Report/list-recent/region/all/   
There is also a button to access recent reports on the top of the national river map page.   AW menu:  River info/national river database.

A nice benefit of uploading multiple photos in one report is that all of your photos from a trip will be organized in the order that you uploaded them rather than in reverse order.  So if you upload your photos in order from the beginning of your trip to the end of your trip, that is the way they will be displayed in that report.  Here are some examples.

      <description><![CDATA[It is important to note this means one report per RIVER trip.
If your day (or your weekend or your week . . .) included different rivers,
or even if it included different sections of the same river,
a different report should be created for each,
so the photos will be attached to the correct section.]]></description>

      <title>Upload multiple photos using 1 report</title>

      <description><![CDATA[When you take a number of photos on a single river reach, please upload them to the AW website via a single report for that river section.  When you create a new report for a river trip, you enter the state, river reach, and date information and also some description of the trip.  It is very nice and adds a lot if you enter descriptive information for photos and reports.   The reach information is important as that will link the report to the correct river.  Reports and photos will not automatically link to a river if you do not enter the reach info.  

You can create a new report from several locations on the AW website.  

1) The photo page:  Menu: Library/Photo Video   http://americanwhitewater.org/content/Photo/view/     Near the upper left corner of this page are 3 buttons one of which is &quot;Upload Multiple Photos&quot;.  Clicking this takes you to the report editor.  

2)  Your personal photo page:  Menu: My Account/ Manage Photos    Click on the &quot;Upload Multiple Photos&quot; button.

3) From any river page go to the Flow Info tab and look at the bottom of that page.  Click on the  button for &quot;New Report&quot;.

At the Report editor, fill in the appropriate information about the river and trip.  
1)  Give the report a simple title
2)  Write a brief description of the trip or paste in a full length trip report.  
3)  Location -  I think this refers to nearest city or town.
4, 5, 6)  Country, State, River/Section:  Each of these boxes have drop down/up menus to allow the correct selection.   Click on the gadget at the right end of the entry box and wait for the menu to respond.  Or, start typing the name and wait for the menu to respond with more limited options.  
7) Date, time and time zone.    Enter the date or use the calendar button to change the date.   Use the drop down menu to change the time to some approximate time of the trip.    The time zone never stays where I put it, so I don't know what to say about that.   Maybe the time zone has some effect, maybe it doesn't.  
8) River level:   Check mark what ever option seems appropriate to you.
9)  Gauge level:  If you check &quot;Yes&quot; additional options appear that allow you to list the gauge (confusing but possible) and to state what you think the gauge reading was.
10)  Add Photo:   This button appears if you are editing a report and if you are creating a new report from the &quot;Upload Multiple Photos&quot; button.  It does not appear on the report editor accessed from the &quot;New Report&quot; button on the river reach flow tab.
11)  Save 

Presently (2009) there are two versions of the report editor.   I think that the one accessed from the photo/video page is a bit nicer as it has a bigger box for entering a trip description and it actually has a button on the bottom of the page that says, &quot;Add Photo&quot;.   

If you start a &quot;New Report&quot; from the flow tab of a reach, the river reach info is automatically entered, but the &quot;Add Photo&quot; button is missing.   Save the report, see it in the reach report list, click on it to open the report, then click on &quot;edit report&quot;   At that point the &quot;Add Photo&quot; button will show up at the bottom of the page.

Click on the &quot;Add Photo&quot; button to open a pop up window / sub window where you can browse for the photo file and add info specific to that photo.  
1) Caption - A short title for each photo
2) Author - You, but should be automatically entered.
3) Subject - Generally the name/names of people in the picture.
4)  Description -  Please write something about the photo to explain it.  It is a small box, but you can write multiple lines.  
5)  Rapid name -  if there is one and you know it.  

Click on the &quot;Update Photo/Video&quot; button and wait for the upload to finish.  After the upload is finished a thumbnail will appear on the right side of the report editor.  You can again click on the &quot;Add Photo&quot; button.   You can add all the photos from a  trip on a single river section to the same report, since much of the information will be the same for all of the photos.

You can come back and re-edit a report to add further information and more photos at any time.  Reports for a reach are found at the bottom of the flow tab for each reach.]]></description>
