Long Term Underground Parking

On Saturday, August 23, we took a 4-wheeler side trip. We went 72 miles round trip down to Bull Valley Gorge in the Grand Staircase of the Esclante Park. Wkay and Mike wanted to rappell down the slot canyon that is home to a late 1940-1950 vintage blue green chevrolet swift master pickup. All intact expect the driver's door and the steering column. These had to be removed for recovery.
In October of 1954 three men started out on a hunting trip. They got to the spot where they made camp and was heading back to their homes but never made it. Just after crossing the wooden planks that was the bridge across the slot canyon, they started up a hill. The best scenario is that the truck died or something else happened that caused them to roll backwards. In this motion they missed the planks. The truck fell bed first in to the slot canyon. Two of the men were crushed inside the truck and the other one was thrown out to fall 165 feet below to the bottom of the canyon.
