We took a nice morning hike up to Seven Falls. The weather looked pretty good until the flash flood hit. Sorry DPS! Thanks to the Department of Public Safety.

  • RIP the two hikers who passed away. Hiking in canyons can be very dangerous. Glad your family was o.k. and thanks for sharing the video!

  • petekosednar Thanks for the kind words. My family was very lucky to be hiking away from the falls when the flash flood happened. We had just crossed the creek and were in a safe area when the flood rolled past us. We were so sorry to hear about the deaths of the two hikers and hope that their families can find some peace.

  • That stream doesn't have rapids and where do you get your "couple of miles away" nonsense? This is a dumb, mean-spirited comment.

  • Show the helicopter pilot. He only saved your lives.

  • What great opening shots and music! Life is so precious and beautifull as this shows. Look what God gave us to play in and around, all while having to be keenly aware of the dangers. I applaud your adventurous spirit for getting out there. The woman in the blue t-shirt has a terrific smile.  Thanks !!

  • I loved your video. I produce the 5pm newscast Monday-Friday at KOLD, and I am working on a half-hour Post Monsoon special, sort of like "Storm Stories" on the Weather Channel. I would love to use some of your video. Could you call me at KOLD? Leasa Conze, 744-1313 ext. 173 or 744-6397, ext. 173

  • Hi guys, Rev Susan mentioned this this morning! (I'd be deaf after that helicopter ride... no ear protection?)

    Found out about the tragedy a few days back on the local news. Sad. Can't believe you were there! - K

  • My prayers are with the families of Tim and Angela...it could have been any of us...since we hike in these canyons around Tucson...

  • My prayers go out to my cousin and to the family of the female victim. God Bless them all.
