Swift water on the Eagle River flipped a raft Monday, dumped a couple rafts sending one woman on a five-mile unintended swim. The rafts flipped near Eagle. The woman was picked up on an island near Gypsum. Of the 19 people tossed in the drink, none were seriously injured. This is normally a very calm stretch of water, but is running at flood stage due to a huge snowpack.
