Grand Canyon National Park officials say a 68-year-old Steamboat Springs woman died when she fell into whitewater rapids while on a boating trip on the Colorado River.
Park officials said the death of 68-year-old Mary Kelley of Steamboat Springs occurred Thursday near Hance Rapid where there is powerful river turbulence at the intersection with Red Canyon due to debris from flash floods.
A park statement said other members of a private boating trip pulled Kelley out of the water but their administration of CPR and subsequent resuscitation efforts by park rangers flown to the scene by helicopter were unsuccessful.
