This is a raft, but it illustrates how dangerous high water on a river can be, how powerful a reversing souse hole can be to trap any sort of boat including a canoe, and how an inexperienced whitewater paddler has no idea what to do. It's also an interesting rescue with rope bags from above by a kayaker and other guys who were dumped out of the raft, leaving the least experienced rafter helpless and terrified in the sucking, sticking hole.
This is the lower Eagle River in Colorado.
