Read OnlineA love triangle snaps during a midnight frog hunt...Mitchell and Jake both love Gina, and they work out their differences on the dark river.A canoeing novice, Mitchell listens intently as Jake tells him, "The drop over the dam ain't very high, but don't ever underestimate the power of the river.
