Canoeing, kayaking, and tubing entail certain risks and hazards and can result in injury and death. Obstacles in the river represent possible hazards.. River conditions are subject to rapid changes and quick currents. Footing can and may be slippery and unstable.  I am aware that the use of canoes, kayaks, and tubes is hazardous and may result in personal injury or loss of life. I assume full responsible for anyone in the canoe that is under the age of 18 years and I am responsible to assure that anyone weighing 90 pounds or less is wearing a life jacket appropriate for their correct weight.
