Wow. The overwhelming number of mistakes and bad decisions of this incident sure do support the notion that NO ONE on this trip actually had any idea what they were doing. The fact that it didn't turn out far worse is simply incredible. As the old saying goes: "I'd rather be lucky, then good." Consider yourselves lucky. Very, very lucky.

Had anyone on this trip actually been on a river before? What a clown show. The person in the oars at the beginning of the video could barely row and it looks like he was the “experienced” one. Wow. I’m stunned to you all made it off the river.

Glad you are all O.K. I've run lodore couple hundred times at 800 to 12,000 cfs. never ran right in triplet, never ran the birth canal, don't think anyone ever should; too much risk.

You've gotta counter-stroke using both oars man. You were only ever using your downstream oar.

Be there in 2 weeks, I am thinking a downstream ferry away from that mess for a little insurance policy. Yikes

Near as I can tell these people are definitely not in their element! I love the gates of Ladore, run many time "in a kayak" never had support flip or pin on any of those trips! The positive? Everyone is ok.

I have to ask, did your group scout this before you ran it?
@headyfloaties94222 жыл бұрын
No we didn’t scout it. We stopped at the campsite before and another group rolled up to camp and we rolled out instead of scouting. Almost all of us never ran Gates of Lodore before. Defiantly was preventable and was a learning experience and some people shouldn’t have came on the trip but a lot of us have ran way more difficult rivers since this video. We scouted Hells Half Mile which went seamlessly with perfectly line. Defiantly should have gone into triplet with a downstream ferry. Could have avoided everything entirely.

Why is this guy rowing . Trying to push away from a wall when your not strong enough to push. Always pull.
