Video: Lochsa River delivers whitewater thrills

RIVER RUNNING -- People lined up along Highway 12 over the Memorial Day weekend for a whitewater thrill show as rafters and kayakers challenged the big runoff waves on Idaho's Lochsa River.

This YouTube video captures the action, and believe me, there's plenty to see... ejected guides, bad breaks, you name it. 

There's a reason the specators in the background are hooting and hollering.
