3 Missing Texas Girls Found Alive in a Hollow Tree 1 Mile From Camp
In what is being referred to as one of the most extraordinary survival tales in American history, three girls who disappeared during the Texas flood disaster have been discovered alive — nestled within the hollow of an ancient oak tree, located just one mile from the devastated Camp Wrenwood.
The girls — Emily Rivera, Zoey Nash, and Hope Lin, aged 8 to 10 — managed to survive for nearly 10 days without food, relying solely on rainwater and the knowledge gained from a wilderness safety drill they had participated in just days prior to the storm.
The Discovery: “We’re Here… Please Don’t Leave”
A volunteer hiker was searching the area when she heard a faint sound emanating from beneath a fallen tree. Initially, she thought it was an animal — until a small voice called out: “We’re here… please don’t leave.”
