A surprise at Hooker Falls

 Unfortunately the video of the man in the raft going over the falls was too big to post here.

 Man gesturing to the falls has just come down them in the orange raft...backward, and fell out at the impact at the bottom.  He quickly got back into raft, and held on to the paddle!

 Woman with 2 children didn't seem to be involved, but was like me, observing this craziness.


 Another man will take the raft back up the river by land, then repeat the process...much like sledding down hills!
It's not just awkward, but apparently heavy too.

The hill coming up from the falls, I noticed the young woman continued to carry her child on her back and climbed this hill without stopping.  I was surprised that I could slowly climb it without stopping also.

 Last look at the falls from the road.

The raft is about to be put in again by the guy who hauled it up the path.
