RedactedNarrative: On 26 June 2016 at approximately 5:00pm, a rafter attempted to negotiate Buffalo Run rapids (South Fork Boise River) alone.  Upon entering the rapids, the raft went into a deep trough and came back up onto a large wave causing the rafter to be thrown off of the rear left of his raft.  The rafter entered the water head first and was swept a short distance downstream and became lodged against a large pine log that lay horizontally in the middle of the river.  He was apparently unable to free himself and drowned.  His body was recovered by Elmore County Search and Rescue personnel at approximately 3:30pm on 30 June 2016.
  
  NEWS REPORT- 
  ELMORE COUNTY - Elmore County deputies suspended recovery efforts on Tuesday to pull a man's body from the South Fork of the Boise River because the conditions are just too dangerous. This, after officials searched for the body of a Boise man who disappeared after his raft overturned on Sunday.
  
  The rafter has been identified as 61-year-old Victim. According to the Elmore County Sheriff's Office, Victim was floating the river in the Buffalo Creek area with his son and a friend when the rafting accident happened.
  
  "The son and the friend had gotten out of the raft and were unsure to my understanding," said Sgt. #1. "He was going through the rapids solo and the raft overturned and he got thrown out."

  Victim's body was discovered Tuesday morning around 9, pinned beneath a log in the river. That part of the river is a very swift and dangerous area.
  
  "The river is constantly changing and when something obstructs it, it creates undertows and currents and other things that can make it dangerous," said Elmore County Sheriff.
  
  The sheriff's office and search and rescue teams worked with the Bureau of Reclamation to slow the water flow in order to make it easier to locate Victim. They say this process alone took nine hours.
  
  "If it's in fast water and you go by them, you can't go back with the raft," said Sheriff. "You can get to shore and try to walk, but as you see in this country if it's real steep it would be pretty hard, and it's a lot steeper up the canyon."
  
  Elmore County officials say they are working with the Bureau of Reclamation to lower the water again on Wednesday to attempt a recovery effort. They are also asking that anyone who was planning to head to the Boise River to stay clear of the South Fork until that happens.
