Troubled Waters Ahead

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Ten years ago, Gary Moyer became only the third person to successfully navigate the 40 mile Gunnison Canyon section of the Moose River. He had a special talent and everybody knew it, including a young aspiring adventurist friend Blake Henson; and an up and coming photo journalist /TV producer Nathan Garner. What would motivate people to go on a suicide adventure trip through unimaginable river conditions, making a documentary of a river adventure? Is it the possibility that the media types want a lot of glory and adrenaline rushes; with little skill, ability and preparation for extreme risk? Where does good common sense, logic and ethics (morality) and the desire to be famous come into play? Is it possible to have all of the above and still survive in a hostile environment? What was to be a once in a lifetime adventure trip down one of North Americas wildest rivers turned into a trip of desperate measures and wilderness survival.
