This bonus episode is a companion piece to episode 14 with Abe Herrera. When Abe described his experience with a rescue on the Foss River, he noted that a Canadian crew had a pin on the same log, but their river rescue took almost 2 hours.
Well, I searched far and wide and tracked down a couple of the Canucks who were involved in the rescue, and they're here to tell their story.
This story from 2014 was written up from two perspectives on my guest Adam's blog. It's an interesting read.
