Please be judicious in using this site to communicate back and forth with very busy people.

Be sure to check the LINKS and FILES pages for important information.

This site is moderated by Nancy Rigg, a writer, documentary filmmaker, and flood safety education consultant, and Slim Ray, internationally-recognized author and authority on flood, swiftwater and whitewater safety and rescue with more than twenty years of experience in swiftwater rescue.
