They got lost, not sure if it was in the bottom of the canyon or in the gulley that leads out. At least one of them had hiked out before. Apparently when they were rescued they were all in their underwear and their breaths smelled like urine. The question is did they each drink their own urine or each others?
"the excitement from the jump consumed my thoughts rather then being prepared." Dang, i am good. OK, Disclaimer time. Been there, done that (not the urine thingy). There were no locals at this virgin place. take care, space
