Rancher Rescued From Shrinking Desert Island By Air
A rancher, George Miller, escaped rising floodwaters 10 miles west of Marana and crouched on a shrinking dry island for more than four hours. An Air Force helicopter from Williams Base plucked him from the 15 foot patch as water covered the land between five wash bridges. Damaging rain followed the storm, with cotton fields and irrigation systems hit near Los Robles Wash and the Santa Cruz River, though the river stayed in its banks.
