This two-parter is one of the best and most thorough I've ever seen. Thanks for explaining exactly what things are and what causes them. It also shows us why we should never get overconfident out there. Thanks so much for posting these.

[@borealriver]

I have been a canoe moving water instructor for just over 30 years. Part 1 and this Part 2 are the best videos I have ever seen that demonstrate and explain river morphology. Thanks you! Excellent work in video imaging and explanations!

[@borealriver]

Thank you so much! :)

[@albinowarrior999]

Thank you for these descriptions and added overlays, really useful for training hydrology to others, excellently put together

Thank you Patrick! Thanks for taking the time to comment!

Thanks for putting this together, as it is excellent!

[@AnonymousStacker]

Good video. I think people want to watch more action on water with commentary. Bring more of these videos of break downs of actually paddling. This was a great video for me to start off

[@borealriver]

Thanks! Great idea.

[@Christina-rg3hp]

This more hydraulics vs hydrology, right? Great video though.
