    Rafting on a class IV river, in a tropical storm

    Sounds like a great idea to me......hopefully I'll make it back for Internext


    Seriously though I want to attempt the Class IV section of a river out here, thats over 20 miles long. Tropical storms this time of year can easily push that to a class V river though (highest level is VI for those not in the know).

    Unfortunately I doubt pics will be possible in this one heh....

        Thx

        Guess I'll be in one of these cases then:

        Class V
        Long and violent rapids. Large waves that are unavoidable and irregular. Extremely difficult and complex course. Scouting is essential.

        Class VI
        Maximum difficulty. Nearly impossible and extremely dangerous. Class V carried to the limit of navigability. Involves risk of life.
