"You’d think the folks in WA state would eventually learn the danger of rivers and mountains."

It appears to be Kentucky rather than Washington. Having been in western Tennessee Thursday through Saturday, I saw some of those flood waters. These guys were taking a huge risk, no matter how experienced they might have been.

Ah. Thought it was the Green River in Washington.

Every year, several people drown in major rivers in WA...from just swimming. It never ceased to amaze me when I lived out there.
