Man Risks Life With Explosives To Save Horses
Washington February 24 The National Park Service reports the first Bright Angel Trail accident. A government packer risked life among TNT laden horses on January 20 to save them after three tied horses toppled 1000 feet off the brink and died. One fall sent 159 pounds of TNT down the slope but did not explode. The ice slicked train carried materials for a new Colorado River suspension bridge. Homer J. Arn untied and separated the animals and aided the rest of the train.
