Ike opens up to brake the 8 minute rule!

Roughly 40 minutes remain in this 90 minute cast...

The cast inches closer and closer to the river that lies before them.

River (the dog) and Ike are approx. 400 yards apart from one another now, so the cast decides to split the difference.

With Ike at the rear of them, close to where the original hole was that the cast had been "treed" in, the group of hunters moves down through the woods toward River a short distance...

Ike is trying to talk himself into another tree...

The judges apply the stationary time on Ike once again...

River has crossed the geographic river ahead of the cast...

Allen Gingerich pipes up from behind the cast and asks if this is a bad time to bring up that he doesn't know how to swim...

Unfortunately for Allen G, the cast must cross the river, to cut the distance between Ike and River...

Holding his breath, he pulls up his frog legs and takes the mighty jump!!


...Fortunately for him, the water is only knee deep...

Allen breathes a hug sigh of relief as he runs to catch up with the rest of the men on the cast...

Final Cast Guide Regan Lanter can be heard sawing logs nearby... not much action to be spoken of currently...

Maybe Regan is building Allen a bridge to get across that river

Final Cast Judge Austin Lane nudges Regan to wake him up as the cast continues on toward River's tree.

Ike can be heard opening in a different direction, he's gonna go on the card for a fourth strike position, since River is currently holding a third position.

River shuts it down, she can no longer be heard treeing...

Both judges simultaneously call for a two minute clock to run on her tree.

*CORRECTION*

Ike is currently holding a first strike position instead of a fourth strike position...

Earlier on in the Play By Play, it was not indicated to me that River had held her strike for over an hour, thus all strike positions became available for Ike once he was declared struck.
