| "On the last Saturday of July 1949, Major Hill decided it was time to
restore the legends financial status. Major Hill age 38 years,
challenged the Great Gorge Rapids in a 625 pound torpedo shaped steel
barrel. The barrel took such an awful pounding that Major Hill had to be
hauled up the gorge in a basket and hospitalized. Major Hill's journey
was a failure in terms of media coverage and financial." From http://www.twotuttles.com/RedHill.html |
