Thread: River walking. How?

Here's a real foreigner question.

Walking up (and down) rivers.

In another thread I was looking for some nice multi-day armed tramps to do. One came up with a bunch of river walking.

Having spend Saturday falling around the Kaniwhaniwha making arse of myself and scaring trout, I'm wondering how you walk rivers with a heavy pack/firearm?

Do you just step in with your boots on and get on with it?

Can't see Croc'ing it being a viable option?
