A morning van ride breaks the quiet of the valley and the Buzău River shows itself in pieces — a cold, silver tongue winding through beech forest and folded limestone. Guides unload neoprene suits and helmets; the river seems to dare you forward as the team files into changing rooms and listens to the safety briefing.
