I remember hiking one of these trails thinking “there’s nowhere to go if it floods”. Not to mention, it’s 10+ miles from parking lot to the reservation
This girl must have been rich because only rich people get this kind of coverage 😂
How are the tribal members ? Cabt find any info on them
ooh my
❤🙏🏻💐
it’s like getting
sunstroke in
Carlsbad Caverns
Thank God Kari Lake wasn't elected governor. She'd have blamed the hikers for getting stuck then sued their families for the cost of the rescue, just to show everyone how tough she is.
Could be worse.
This is really sad nothing is more powerful on earth than water. I couldn't believe how fast water moves in the desert till I moved from the Midwest to Southern California. It's incredible and it's terrifying
All the cactus is dying in the desert. Hmmmm wonder why..
Monsoon my foot . This is a micro burst. A real monsoon lasted 1st week in July into September everyafternoon sky turn black with cumulus clouds wind bring in sand storm before monsoon hit bout 2hrs hard but beautiful rain .. than in October hard fall rains for 1mnth. In the spring wild flowers here to mexico.. wake up if u dont see what destruction man has done to the weather whom u see how u believe in a Creator whom u don't see.. pathetic.. we haven't seen anything yet .. we've turned our backs on God .. n He turned His back on us. There still hope for us but slim .. which God will u serve.come or He's coming with wrath to judge the living n the dead. I'm 76. Doesn't take a rocket scientist. Meetin at the river. 😮🎉
Don’t fool with Mother Nature!
At 0:33 it says in the middle of Monsoon season, that’s always a great time to go into a deep canyon to hike Darwin Award recipient
God be with them🙏🙏🙏
Stay home.
🙏🏾
I have seen whole small trees, 2 foot boulders, hundreds of tangled branches, dead animals, and liquid mud clear across the wash. If you are in that, your chances are low. Stay away, in rainy season. If a flash flood is coming, Run! Nobody can stand against that.
Oh, my goodness!
What a shame for her and her entire family and friends, condolences to everyone!
Lady: "What's the most important aspect of Search and Rescue?" Chad: (Bruh.)
Why does this continue to happen? The worst flash floods happen in the desert, within minutes
They found her Body 🙁 RIP Chenoa Nickerson
buy a boat nxt time
I'm glad I left Arizona or I might be in them floods 😢 prayers all around
Sorry for the family lost, nature sucks sometimes
My goodness, I hope they find her okay. If tonight were your last, where would you spend eternity: heaven or hell? God wants to welcome you to Heaven forever, but Satan wants to drag you into eternal torment. You have the power to choose. Don't let Satan win. God is calling on your heart, ready to guide you to a life of peace and purpose. Pray: “Lord Jesus, I admit that I am a sinner. I accept your gift of salvation and trust in you as my Lord and Savior. I believe that you died for my sins and rose again. Come into my heart, Lord, and be my Savior. Amen." You are now "born again." Find a Bible-based church and grow in faith.
The Grand Canyon has been deadly this year. Maybe time to stay home?
She was swept away in HAVASU CANYON on the HAVASUPAI INDIAN RESERVATION. The national park service announced they found her body in the Colorado river 20 miles downstream.
I been there 3 times, but never during monsoons. Monsoon weather is so unpredictable and scary. Hope she is found safe.
Be responsible and do a little planning before jumping up and going on an outdoor event in areas that have the potential for unexpected catastrophe.
Lake Tahoe was like 33 degrees low , the weather is haywire
That nm poor woman!
Stupid time to go hike there, bunch of dummies. She looks like she can float so she’ll be okay.
Four of my cousins died in an AZ flash flood. Be careful. It can be dry where your at, raining miles away, and still be at risk. Be aware, stay alive.
Stay out of those slot canyons when it rains.
damn hope they find her.
She gone
