Was she ever found? When I was there in 1966, we saw 5 people go over the barrier at the rim. Daddy help 2 back over and the rangers helped the other 3. Then they were escorted out of the park. They wanted to get pictures of themselves across the barrier. I could even see the bottom from where I was standing. When we were the car again, Daddy explained the situation to us kids. He and Momma had been there before.
We lived in the desert 40 years. Loved every minute of it.
