Trip Report

ReporterRob Smage

FWIW, strictly in the interests of clarity and correctness, the text of the cited article may be misleading as to the actual events. The initial problem Richard had was being stopped/caught in the hole above 'Silver Bullet'. I'm pretty sure the report was that repeated attempts were made to throw him a rope while he was in the hole, but he went limp. it was only once he flushed from the hole that his body ended up pinned on the tree. The hole which stopped him should be of concern and should be scouted and evaluated by all boaters before deciding to run the drops in the 'Cabin Section'.
