Blue Dream

You pick up the oars and begin rowing in an attempt to reach land. The current is extremely strong, and it takes all the strength your weak body can muster to turn the boat at a slight diagonal and head towards the shore. Suddenly, your boat is hit by a large wave of water caused by the current and you are sprayed with freezing cold water. You are breathing rapidly at this point, but you are now quickly approaching the shoreline. You realize that your boat will not be able to penetrate the icy shore. If you’re going to get to land, you will need to swim to the ice line and attempt to army crawl above the ice to shore. Would you still like to attempt to get to shore, or would you rather try your luck with navigating the river?
