Boy Scout Zion Disaster
Years ago a boy scout explorer group had a big disaster in Zion Narrows. There was a major law suit about it and the NPS settled out of court. There was a great article about it in some magazine. I thought it was Outside but I can't find anything about it in their archives. Does anyone remember this and are there any on-line articles about it?
