Interesting Trips With Our Inflatable Products

A Flip on the Middlefork of the Salmon
Spring 2003, by Jeff Erney

I just got off the Middle Fork of the Salmon and had a situation where we flipped and lost a boat for about 36 hours. The boat ran about 17 miles before eddying out upside down. The only dry bag that stayed dry was yours! This bag was submerged for a day and a half and performed as advertised. I thought that your bag was a little pricey at first, but quality is certainly worth a few more dollars. What a pleasant surprise to open your bag after seeing my buddy pour a couple gallons of water out of one of your competitors bags. His clothes and sleeping bag acting like a sponge, mine dry and ready to use. Thanks for offering such a quality product.

Jack's Note
There was more to the story. There were 2 other trips that floated Marsh Creek that had a person drown on each trip. The river rose to 8.2 ft eventually this trip flew out at the Flying B Ranch. If you are going to stretch your limits. Please make sure that you are well equipped with good rescue gear and training. Remember that whitewater sports are dangerous!
