: I think its better to offer warnings to greenhorns (that includes me) than to

: myself by telling my story about running over the rapid and nearly dying.
: Sometimes I wonder if doing so has kept some of our kayaking friends
: alive. I am still thankful I made that mistake. I am certain that it has
: allowed me to keep paddling while not making any further life-threatening
: blunders. I do know that some kayaking instructors are using this story to
: cement the idea into the heads of new paddlers that they really have to be
: careful while they are in a kayak.
