I commend Jennifer Boyette, Carol Lucero and Jennifer Foote for their valiant CPR work. Within a few minutes of start of CPR by three members of the cave trip (El Paso Archaeological Society), Jennifer Boyette and Carlo Lucero arrived and immediately engaged in CPR, and soon Jennifer Foote arrived and joined the effort. Those CPR people did that work for nearly an hour, until relieved by paramedics.

Several Fort Stanton Cave Study Project members assisted in attempts to revive the man, unfortunately, unsuccessfully. Lincoln County EMS was notified and they, along with FSCSP members successfully recovered the body out of the cave by approximately 8 pm. A more detailed accounting will occur later. Steve Peerman "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in you sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." attributed to Mark Twain, but no record exists of his having written this. _______________________________________________ NMCAVER mailing list nmca...@caver.net http://caver.net/mailman/listinfo/nmcaver_caver.net _______________________________________________ NMCAVER mailing list nmca...@caver.net http://caver.net/mailman/listinfo/nmcaver_caver.net
