Narrow Escape For Rio Grande Canyon Explorers
Col Crimmins and Lieut. Commander Claud Young survived a 30 minute voyage through the Long Canyon rapids on the Rio Grande after their boat capsized. They clung to a sand bar overnight with only a small fire before reaching Langtry and Del Rio. Missing gear valued at about $1,000 was lost, including cameras, as they drifted downstream and salvaged the craft with help from the biscuit can and rope.
