Most Precarious Moment of the Weekend

Unexpectedly backstroking* across the Coloardo River and collapsing from exhaustion on the south bank.

*backstroking is not a very accurate term as it implies that my arms were being used to propel myself across the river. Instead, they were desperately holding a GPS receiver and a cellphone above the water.

But there is already a solution--don't bring your cell phone. I think there were two cell phone casualties on Sunday. Miraculously, mine recovered after some water-induced difficulties.

I really didn't intend to take them through water that deep, but, as I had gotten there late, I didn't have time to find the second shallow crossing again. Thankfully there were no complaints!
