2 rafters, 1 OC1er, 1 K1er, 1 hiker trying to wade across Sec 4. The others were on Russell Fork(2) and 2 on a local class 3 run.

ps would Jesus have been an open boater or a butt boater?
A bit off-topic, but Christmas is about celebrating Jesus' birth and Easter is about his death and resurrection. Glad to help out here.
Since Jesus was to have walked on water, he would either be a strider or a water walker.
Now, for those who are feeling the effects of these short days of sunlight and less paddling, go sit in front of a UV lamp while watching paddling video (like smurfwarrior's Acrobat updates). You'll feel lots better til you can get back on the water.
Have a merry Christmas, y'all.

@KNeal, I agree.
All this post accomplishes this holiday week makes me think of about 6 people that needlessly died. I was on the water at scene for the last Russell Fork death ( I hope there wasn't yet another) and I can't even describe how horrific it was......needless to say its not holiday joy inspiring in my life.
i'll pick up this thread after Saturday and let you in on a safety Training I do called Learning by Accident. (maybe you don't still live in Colorado?) The class addresses this thread very well though I don't have much specific data from the Cboat world. I tend to think water safety is a basic building block regardless of what you paddle.
