Swiftwater Rescue Class, Rexburg Idaho

We just returned from teaching a Swiftwater Rescue class with folks from the outdoor program at BYU. Thanks to Scott and Morris for helping put together a great course on the Fall River and the Henry's Fork of the Snake River. A crew of guides from Solitude Float Trips in Jackson Hole came over and participated in the class. They guide scenic float trips in Grand Teton National Park on the Snake River. Make sure to look them up if you're ever over there. Montana River Guides provided all of the gear for the class. Cody Harris from the Whitewater Rescue Institute sacrificed his body and drysuit with extra effort as a victim in the boat pin scenarios. That is beautiful country down there--we saw moose and an otter during the class. One moose hung out beneath the bridge all day during the class on Friday. Thanks to all of the students for being gung-ho and to Caleb and Paul for coming over from Idaho Falls and helping out.
