Eerily similar flood in 1987 killed 10 campers
In July 1987, an eerily similar flood struck campers along the Guadalupe River.
In the early morning of July 17, 1987, between 5 and 10 inches of rain fell across the upper Guadalupe River basin, according to the National Weather Service, triggering a massive surge of water that traveled down the Guadalupe River through Ingram, Hunt -- near Camp Mystic -- Kerrville and eventually Comfort.
Evacuating campers and staff from the Pot O’ Gold Christian Camp were trapped and eventually swept away by overflowing floodwaters from the Guadalupe River. Ten campers were killed and 33 people were injured, according to the National Weather Service.
