CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK (AP) - A Grants Pass man walking on snow shoes got
too close to the rim of Crater Lake Sunday and fell in.
Feared lost in the water far below was Nick Carlino, 30.
Park Supt. Einar Johnson said the accident occurred about 3:30 p.m. when
Carlino was snowshoeing about 200 yards from the cafeteria at the south rim of
the lake.
Searchers Sunday were unable to sight Carlino and it was feared he went all
the way down the steep drop into the lake.
A Josephine County rescue team headed by Bill Pruitt of Grants Pass continued
the search Monday.
