Bow River Rescue: Danger in the Current | Calgary News

Three paddleboarders were rescued from the Bow River near Edworthy Park after getting stuck in the water—thanks to life jackets and jet boats, no one was hurt. But with river flows hitting over 500 cubic meters per second, officials are sounding the alarm: currents are dangerously strong, debris is floating, and hidden hazards lurk beneath the surface. A safety advisory is in place for all river activity, including walking near the banks or playing with pets—especially as Stampede visitors flock to the area. Don’t risk it: these rivers are too wild to play in right now.
