The woman was kayaking in a fast moving section of the river when she fell out of her kayak and into the water. By the time emergency personnel responded the woman was stranded on a rock in the middle of the river. The woman was in the water about 35 to 40 minutes, which was enough time for her to be treated for hypothermia and minor injuries to both legs at a local health center. The kayak was recovered further downstream.  ***MORE INFORMATION PENDING*** 2/18/2010 - Resident State Trooper is supposed to be faxing more information regarding incident.
