My daughter decided to cool off ina mountain stream had quite a reaction:eek:. A little wilderness humor from my family to yours.

Short Video

She does have a spirit of adventure, you have to give her credit for that. Mac
 
I take it the water was a little cold !!!

Looks a great little spot, very cool !!!
 
Pitdog,

The place is a real gem of a spot. This stream begins at a spring on the mountain and runs a few km in a deep ravine topped with dense jungle. It sees little/no sunlight and stays ice cold all year. Water temp was about 55 degrees F (air temp was about 80, hence the reaction).

BTDT when I was a kid !! Always thought it was colder than 55 !
 
Spooky,

Yes, thats HER M2K and 14 inch Tramontina. I wisely stayed behind to guard the gear and take embarassing videos.

Actually she said I could post it. She's a great kid, 16 and doing fantastic. Mac
 
Pict,

What a wonderful time with your family! Those kind of moments are priceless, and are to be cherished! You and your daughter will be laughing about this one for years and years!

Ahhh God bless Her. That was funny as hell. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

We have hundreds, if not thousands of mountain streams where I live. Most are spring run off that feel about a degree or two above freezing. I have sounded just like Her on several occasions. In fact, a little less manly at times. :o;):D
 
Thank you for sharing...I think all of us who have taking the icy plunge sounded like that to one extent or another !

True, but us guys tend to make that noise when the water gets up to about the level of the bottom of our front pants pockets:D

Oh how true! I quickly learned about sinking soap when I was about 10 on our canoe trip to Canada. After wading waist deep and dunking my head under to retrieve it I emerged and sounded several octets higher than your daughter pict:D
