Safety is no Accident

Yet another near casualty on the Animas River in Durango, CO. A raft is rescuing two kayakers trapped against the Main St. Bridge that is loaded with rebarb (boat and skin shredders in concrete). Every year people test the powers of the river in tubes, Wal-Mart rafts, and homemade concoctions with no respect for the water. What people don't realize is that when there is an accident, it is others that risk their safety to help. There will be no remedy for the ignorant, but just remember, the river will always get the upper hand.
