When canoeing in a strong current or wind what should one keep in mind? Keep in mind that the current is stronger than you are. The current causes the water to do certain things when it reflects around a rock or it goes through a fallen down tree.

Wind can do a number of things. It blows you around, which can be frustrating if you are trying to go up and it's blowing you back to where you are coming from. Wind can cause hyperthermia problems too. With wind comes colder conditions and if you get wet or if you are exposed to that wind for too long hyperthermia can be a real problem.
