Your video was 1000x better than mine! I shouldn't have done a timelapse. I'm glad you got my tube deflating though! haha

The entire trip lasted one battery too which isn’t bad, but I missed the last rapid however. Yeah, I was right behind you when I saw the raft scrape over the rock.

Thank you SO Much for this video! It really helped to see THIS river! In my opinion, it's just NOT worth the higher risk of poking a hole in or ripping a thin tube & the anxiety/panic it can cause. Many people may not be experienced enough to deal with it more calmly & safely. If people have to buy tubes, buy heavier duty tubes meant for river tubing, Not the cheap thin "$5," tubes meant for pools. Note in the video how they handle it when/ If you come off the tube & can't easily get back on, DON'T PANIC, hold on to your tube & float til you're calm & in an area you can get back on it. The ropes on the river tubes make it so you & others can hang onto your tube & it also makes it easier to get on if someone is helping by holding your tube. Stear clear of the bridge supports as much as possible. Wearing 3/4 length sleeves helps prevent tube rashes on the upper back of your arms from paddling.

Of course - happy to hear that it helped! And it's different now from this year due to the bridge replacement, you have to pay a fee to park, etc. But your advice is spot on. Thanks for sharing that.

Thanks. It is a lot of fun. It’s one that you can do multiple times in a summer pretty easily.
