Featured in the game, The Oregon Trail, fording the river is on of the most diabolical options ever created in the gaming world - aside from the plethora of wrong turns in The Water Temple. The root of its evil plays on the human characteristic of "It's impossible that I could flip my cart and lose 2 oxen, three times in a row." Oh, I assure you, it is VERY possible. You travel 3/4ths of the way across the river, and just when you think you're home free, disaster strikes. NEVER ford a river. NEVER.
