Utah Man Rescued From Arizona Flooding in Grand Canyon National Park

[@freeheartnow]

What a well spoken man. I am glad they are are all safe.

[@momof2949]

And yet he is alive. Many thanks to all who risked theirs to get to all the people stranded.

[@dhowto3005]

One young lady lost her life. Condolences to the family. Glad everyone else was either rescued or made it out safely. They rain or water is needed. Please be safe everyone.

[@ohwhataday7171]

I’ve hiked to the little town Supai, then hiked down the creek to Navajo Falls, then to Havasu Falls, and to Mooney falls once in the fall and twice in the early to mid-spring. I’d never go in the summer months for so many reasons. Glad most people made it out. Condolences to the family who lost a loved one.

[@dh5380]

I’ve hiked those slot canyons all over the southwest and I’ve warned a lot of people when I heard loud crashing sounds, but not everyone Ran, not everyone believed

[@TheNaturesPower-f6n]

It is wonderful that he is still alive. A heartfelt thank you to all those who were so brave and willing to sacrifice themselves to help those trapped. Their sacrifice and courage are admirable, and we must never forget their contributions.

I was wondering about the mules. TY for mentioning them.

[@thegeobus1]

Crazy! Almost exactly the same as our story from Oct 2003... ironically I am Laurie and my ex- husband's name was Cory. We camped near Mooney falls, started raining right after we set up camp (0% chance of rain)... local came down and told us to move to higher ground... back to village and choppered out hours later. I also remember seeing all the mules stranded and the trails flooding out. Glad all are safe!

[@triciac1019]

Why shouldn't they charge to be air lifted out of there? They are using their resources, time helicopter and fuel. Seems planning ahead would have been a good idea. If there is any chance of rain, you don't go. I am surprised they let the mules be rented becaise of the weather. The blackhawks are amazing crafts. I love to see them flying over. This was good practice for them also. I am so glad they all made it out of there. I hope they can find the missing person.

In Skywest’s defense, fuel is extremely expensive and $100 would probably not even cover their costs. It would be wonderful if everyone could donate in times of need like this, but sometimes people do not have the means to do so.

[@wj7867]

The fact that this guy is complaining about a private company offering an evacuation for $100 is an embarrassment. $100 is nothing. This attitude of entitlement is just utterly obnoxious.

[@hikingwiththedog6078]

@@wj7867 He wasn't complaining about the cost, he was noting that many people had their wallets/backpacks washed away and therefore had no way to pay on the spot.

[@wj7867]

@@hikingwiththedog6078 He's complaining about so much that it's hard to keep track. Nevertheless, a private helicopter that charges a very, very reasonable rate to be extracted a day earlier than the incoming taxpayer-funded extraction (which he also complained about) is ONLY a good thing and really should not be the object of anyone's complaint.

The Canyon officials will tell you, if u inquire prior to going, when yhe best rimes are to visit Grand Canyon. A travel agent will do the same. Stop going when the conditions are not recommended. I know because i had this info feom these sources. The guided tours also explsin that the Canyon has its own weather system snd ut behooves one to know this. I learned a great deal. Also, i didnot go into the Grand Canyon. I saw it at numerous points FROM THE RIM!

I think that they are the business that helicopters people every day there. In the Village Of Supai visitors and Tribe members helicopter in and out of the village. Tourists pay a fee and tribe members ride for free. When I went there I hiked to the falls and then helicoptered back up to where the trail started. There are no motorized vehicles there. they use horses and mules.

[@laurentdenise9441]

Depuis plus de 30 ans les climatologues disent bien, qu’avec le dérèglement climatique, il n’y aura pas moins d’eau mais une dégradation de la répartition annuelle des pluies : inondations l’hiver et sécheresse l’été, exactement le scénario qui s’installe durablement en France et partout dans le monde. Une pluie même forte n’est pas un raz de marée mais elle le devient automatiquement quand on ne régule pas les ruissellements en amont des bassins versants. Le bon sens aurait voulu qu’on anticipe en construisant des retenues en amont des villes pour maintenir un débit acceptable et plus régulier en aval tout au long de l’année, mais depuis quelques années l’administration ordonne la destruction des ouvrages sur les rivières au nom de la continuité écologique, ce qui a amplifié massivement un phénomène parfaitement prévisible : quand l’eau s’écoule plus vite elle s’écoule moins longtemps ! La France et l'Europe font systématiquement et méthodiquement l'inverse de ce qu'il faut faire, à commencer par détruire les barrages quand on manque d'eau et d'énergie ...

When they say you should be experienced when hiking the falls, that means way more then being a hiker. As a Native to Arizona born and raised, I understand the meaning of get to higher ground and not just moving away from the embankment. I would never go hiking anywhere in a canyon during the Arizona monsoons. I know better. These ppl where uneducated and naive.
