[Paddlewise] Any more info on double fatality?

<<<Now that it has been several days, does anybody have more info on the
sad
double fatality in the San Juan's last week? I heard a rumor that the
paddlers were not wearing thermal protection at all. Can anyone verify
this?>>>

The County Sheriff's Dept. told me the first paddler was not dressed for
immersion, save for his wet suite booties. I don't know the details on
the second paddler, as a different jurisdiction picked the secong guy
up. Please let us know if you find out anything further, via
back-channel info sent to you - just don't quote source, of course. I
did mention the lack of immersion gear a few days ago. Did you miss the
post, or just didn't believe me? :-)
