When I released her, she flew away and landed in a nice pool where she proceeded to eat and drink for at least the next hour while we watched her. She seemed to be just fine, and will have some great stories to tell her friends.

That is very cool.

I think you are thinking of Knotted Rope in the Swell.


I don't remember this. I'm planning to do Knotted Rope this weekend (18-20 April). Can someone point me to a report of what happened to get someone killed?

Probably the most detailed info on the Knotted Rope Death is right here on Bogley.
