The name of the common error in this sentence is C) dangling modifier. 
We don't know what the dangling modifier (having risen because of the rains) actually refers to - does it refer to the hikers or the river?

Mark all words that end with consonant clusters:
Marina CMI [18]

Consonant blends, also referred to as consonant clusters, are a set of two or three consonant letters that when pronounced, retain their sound. Blends are found either at the beginning or end of a word. For example, in the word “break”, the “b” and “r” sounds are pronounced.

The indefinite pronoun in the sentence is ANY.
