"The river is dangerous. The mountains are dangerous. The backcountry is dangerous. People come up here, they get badly injured. They get killed. That's a part of it. It just goes with it."
-Terry Peavler, pres of the Chaffee County Search & Rescue
Article on Frog Rock in today's Gazette can be seen here. My motivation to raft the numbers has gone way down since learning about this section of the river. I'll stick to the Gorge, or even better yet, Brown's canyon. Or Cherry Creek in Denver.
