After a near fall into the Lincoln Brook (more like river) this Sunday I was questioning my age old wisdom of unbuckling my hip and shoulder straps. As I slipped and tried to keep my balance I had the pleasure of feeling my pack slip up my neck and head. Luckily, I was able to get the pack back down and keep my head up and body out of the river.
Is there any rule of thumb about how to best handle these situations? I had never had unbuckling cause me an issue in the past. My thought is to unbuckle when I am alone, or if the water is very deep...
Thoughts and ideas appreciated...
