    Oh gosh, I sure wish we knew more about this and who was there. My thoughts and prayers go out to the injured and their families and the lucky teammate who escaped.

    Be careful out there!

    Ran into 4 guys from California in the Subway today.  They said that they waited out a flash flood just above the final rap in Lodge Canyon yesterday.  They were none the worse for wear, but described a terrifying hour and a half “crouched and shaking while the water ran over our heads.”  After that, they just rapped down and walked out.
