our on a mild section of river with 6 canoes, 16 middle schoolers,
two college age staff, and two adult guests. You have been on the
river most of the morning you just stopped for lunch and have launched
off again. Out of nowhere a storm approaches you yell to everyone to
get off at river left. you are able to get all the kids off the river
and onto wooded land. At this time you know where the interstate is
because you could see it before you got off the river. It's raining
hard and the storm is right over your head. after two hours of waiting
the storm out children are getting cold, adults are getting grumpy,
staff are getting anxious to find a way to hike the kids to the
interstate? Do you look for a way to get to the interstate and evac
everyone and leave the canoes to come back for at a later time?
There's no trail to the interstate you just know it's close. Do you
wait it out and keep everyone by the river in the storm that has not
stopped and continue to try and keep the adults calm, staff calm, and
campers calm? Adults and staff want to evac to busy interstate because
children are cold... staff are starting to question protocol for
waiting out storms. What would you do?
