How do rafters nevigate whirlpools?
There are two types of "whirlpools" in rafting rivers. The first is where river currents converge or a strong current flows around an obstacle and generate a swirling current that is spinning around a vertical axis. This first type is similar in appearance to the water pattern in a toilet bowl when flushed. In rafting terms these are sometimes called Eddy's. They usually have a calm side where the water flows back up stream and a rough side where the strong down stream current is. To escape an Eddy is very simply, you aim the nose of whatever craft you are in up stream and paddle into the strong current. The force of the moving water will turn you craft around so the the nose is pointed downstream and the craft will be pulled into the main current of the stream. The second type is called a Hole is where the water flow in a cycle around a horizontal axis. This happens when water flows over a ledge and drops a short distance. This type of river feature can be very dangerous if you are not in a craft. If you are in a raft you normally do not notice holes, but playboater's in small kayaks will perform tricks in holes. To escape a hole in a craft simply paddle the craft in the direction one wants to go. If you are not in a craft and get sucked into a hole you can be kept in the cycle and held under water for very long periods of time. To escape a hole when not in a craft draw your knees up to your chest and tuck your arms in close to your body. This should concentrate your mass into a smaller area and the water current will spit you out of the hole. There are no super huge Whirlpools like you see in movies that suck ships down!
