I didn't see a ranger when we got there...which was probably around 11:30ish chrispreperato New

no... the ranger(s) upstream at the site of the incident were asking folks not to run I.R. and to pass the word... decker New

note

gotcha...I never got that word, but common sense told me to walk it <NT> chrispreperato New

out of respect for who/what? The rapid itself or a ranger? likes

I ran it clean, but I'm not recommending it if you aren't comfortable with it. <NT> nixon_boatertalk New
