I always figured you were tougher than steel.  Now we have proof!  I'm glad the river gods were pulling for you there buddy.  It reminds me of our first descent of the Ateragawa in Japan a few years ago- an easy class V-  but it was spiced up with loops of steel cable that used to be guardrails from the road above.  It definitely kicked up the sketch factor-  but at 70 cfs- it wasn't a big issue.  Kinda scary if you're thinkin of swimming though.

Play safe everybody!!  Nobody is totally bulletproof-  even if you're under 30.
