Swiftwater Rescue Advanced Training Course

An advanced swiftwater rescue course can be pretty hard to pull off with such a small group, but these guys were up for the challenge. We had fair weather with a bit of cold rain, which we hammered through. The night search was probably the highlight with them having to find me tucked under a rock “unconscious”.

Getting me free was their first challenge and then transporting me to the other side of the river proved to be a whole other ball of wax (not to mention the cookout we had before hand had us all a bit sluggish).
