One way to cross a river with dry feet is by way of what is called a "fair weather crossing." These crossings consist of a concrete base laid across the river, about six inches under the water. Vehicles can drive across the river on this pad. For hikers, concrete or wood stepping stones are places along side the concrete slab. These stepping stones rise about a foot above the water and are placed sufficiently far apart to allow the water to flow naturally, yet allow the hiker to step comfortably across.
