We have had a tragedy here in NZ on the Mangatepopo stream six 16 year olds and there teacher have been killed in a flash flood while canyoning. This is in the Tongariro state park and they had a fully experienced Guide with them.
I think it might be time to think about what we do and when we do it, please if you are fishing a gorge area be aware of the weather in the head waters, flash floods are more common than most peaple realise.
Here is a link to the story http://www.stuff.co.nz/4483423a10.html
Please say a prayer for these young peaple and there relatives and friends.
Mike.
Mike,
That’s is just awful, such a tragedy. All of our prayers here are going out to the families and friends of those who perished and to the survivors of this terrible disaster.
I will most definitely pray for these poor people and their families.
This is a terrible incident, and it is unimaginable the loss everyone is experiencing. I pray for all those people involved.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the families.
