Canyon Ledge Rescue: Man Survives Five Days on Narrow Shelf
Mrs. Sanders recounts how her husband and Garver fell from a canyon ledge near the Colorado New Mexico border. After 300 feet of sliding, the survivor crawled to a narrow ledge and tied his feet to a tree to stay awake. He used a balloon-like rope device to signal rescuers, praying between calls for help. The two men, fishing companions, faced isolation in a heavily timbered primitive area with only two-way radio for contact.
