I spent a day connected to this trio via cooler-strap to innertube for a 3-hour float trip. These three are part of a larger group of old pals with origins in El Paso, TX, and they made for great company on a day like this. 


No one remembered the instructions (a short, semi-critical assemblage of keywords: “right, right, left, center”) exactly as said, and we thrived in spite of it, bouncing along the rapids, connected to the tube with our coolers.
