How to not run Rocket Launcher

Here is Chris running Rocket Launcher and getting beat down



I decided to "let the cat out of the bag" and write about what else happened in the Poudre. So it was our first full day in Colorado after 27 hrs of driving. We ran Joe Wright and Spencer Heights down to Poudre Falls. The last rapid is called Rocket Launcher which is a couple of 100 yards above the falls. After Chris got beat down and swam, we chased his boat down the road. Finally it had gotten hung right beside a bridge. We got his boat out in some what of 1 piece. Chris then realized that when he had swam his keys which was in his vest were ripped out. So already thinking it couldnt get anyworse a Black dude and a Hippy chick were on the side of the road and saw what happened. The offered give us a ride up to our truck in a mustang, we stashed Chris's boat in the woods and Andy's down a ditch. We get to the top and the guy not saying much, gets in his boxers and runs around in the woods. We were a little frightened at the time but being thankful for the ride we give him water and off he drove. We finally got a woman to call the police and give them my AAA information from a call box. About that time the yellow mustang was back, this time pulling the E-Brake comming into the parking lot. He got out and had a hammer in one hand and a big skinning knife in the other. He started to take his shirt off and say that we stole their purse. We calmy talked him down and simply told him that were stuck here and that we wouldnt steal anything from anyone. The guy finally leaves so we walked back up to the road to wait for AAA. About that time a truck drove by with Andy's green Nomad and all we could do was watch it drive away. AAA finally arrived and gave us a ride back into town where we stayed at a motel 8 for the night. The next morning AAA picked us back up and drove us back up the mountain. When we got there the black guy was there...AGAIN!! This time had our bed cover undone and digging through it. We got out mad as hell, shaking with adrenaline, and confronted him and repeatedly told him "WE DONT HAVE YOUR F$#KIN WALLET" he then appolgizes and leaves. About a hour later we get a key made in town and decided we werent goin home yet, so we proceeded to drive back up that mountain 1 more time. On the up we were just chit-chattin about the day when two moose ran across the road causing us to run off the road almost hitting a car! Needless to say one of us had some baddd JUJU and it was catching up with us. Here are some random pics of the scenery
