Colorado Parks and Wildlife released its set of safety tips for rafters, kayakers and canoeing just ahead of the peak of water runoff from the mountains which is typically this week.
• Always wear a properly-fitted life vest designed for white-water river use.• Pack a first-aid kit, an extra PFD, patch kit, spare oar or paddle, pump, bail bucket if the craft is not a self bailer, a whistle and bow/stern line. It is also a good idea to be prepared with rescue ropes, throw lines, a knife and carabineers.
• Dress properly for an unexpected cold-water swim and changing water. Wear pile or fleece rather than cotton. Protect your feet with sturdy footwear that won’t come off in the river. Carry extra clothing, food and water.• Never forget the power of the river and know the section of river you are boating.• Watch your surroundings, including the weather.
