for all of you reading this thread....

that water is extremely dangerous...any river like that
is because if you turn the wrong way the fast current can literally knock you over with ease...

it happened to me once... and luckily a good friend was with me and was able to extend his hand and pull me up

man was i frozen too... but the scary thing is...

when that current is washing over the top of you....

the weight of it is tremendous and even though its only knee deep it has incredible force you to the bottom strength.

so if you go alone remember this post and keep your stance side ways to the current.... if possible
