Özet
With the force of Niagara Falls, the Hundred Year Flood struck when people were sleeping. At 4:00 AM on July 4th, 2025, the Guadelupe River was supercharged with rainfall from Tropical Storm Barry. One trillion gallons fell in four hours; four months’ worth of rain, which deluged the Texas Hill Country. Runoff from the rocky terrain and the surrounding hills created a sluice of water that raised the level of the Guadalupe River by 29 feet in 45 minutes, sending it barreling towards Camp Mystic, a Christian girls summer camp. The girls had no phones to hear the flash flood alerts sent out at 1:15 AM in the region known as “flash flood alley.” Instead, the cabins of the younger girls in “the flats” along the banks of the Guadalupe were enveloped by the horrific force of the river. By morning, 25 girls perished along with two counselors in the deadliest flash flood in Texas history. The total death toll from the flood reached more than 100 people.
The Camp Mystic Flood is a story of hubris, denial, incompetence, and the belief that God would ultimately protect sleeping little girls by a river in one of the most dangerous flash flood zones in the country. It is also a story of courage, of the young girls who made split-second decisions to save their bunkmates, the counselors who became last-minute heroes, the parents who woke up to devastating news, and the first responders who battled rising waters to pull survivors from the wreckage. The Camp Mystic Flood was a once-in-a-century event. Hazelgrove tells the story of the campers, the girls, the counselors, rescuers, and families, weaving together stories of heroism, tragedy, and the events leading to the deadly flash flood that decimated the summer camp in the middle of a warm night on the nation’s birthday. This is, ultimately, a story of blind faith.
