Log rolling is a very popular competition in spite of ice cold water.

Great fun! I've always loved watching this. I can't help the occasional "Oh!" groan.

Usually a big splash happens very quick.Sometimes even before the 2nd contestant gets on the log. Thanks,Ivan.

The competition lasts a couple of hours and the contestants have no place to dry off or to warm up.Definitely not for people who cannot tolerate being miserably cold. Thanks,Ivan.

Beautiful captures but I think i'd rather do zip lines in Central America. It's much warmer for my old bones.

I walked on floating logs and rafts but I refuse to thrill crowds by falling in the water. Thanks,Ivan.
