Jeep Washed Away & Rescued
Warm weather and water rise during a sunny day leads to a safe exit. On warm spring days with Glacier and snow melt, rivers and creeks can rise and fall 18"-24" in a 24 hour period. Silt-laden rivers are tricky to cross because you can't see the bottom. The depths are deceiving: a huge braid may be only ankle deep, while a small, 3-foot-wide channel could be over your waist. You won't know the true depth until you're halfway across.
Another issue is that the sides and bottom of the rivers are in a continual state of transformation. The silt does not allow for stability. Rocks are always shifting and can often be heard rolling in the water, unseen. During that fateful crossing, our ford across literally reshaped the river. New braids formed, and the channel where we had our trouble split into three variations. Watch the ending where the Jeep resurrection occurs the following spring right after the ice goes out.
