Biden will hike down and save them.

[Yo-Yo]

No thanks

From another article:

The malfunction was discovered about sundown Sunday, and the group was unable to use a stairway system described to be similar to an old, external fire escape, Paxton said.

The caverns are equipped with a six-person hotel suite and food service, and the group was put up for the night by the hotelkeepers, he said. The suite lists for $1,000 a night for two.

Oh the horrors...

I haven't been the the Grand Canyon since they built this skywalk thing.

Hmmm....

Nice cozy spot to get stranded.

My wife and I went there a few years ago. There’s still a big cache of old Civil Defense food down there, so the tourists and staff will be all right for years.

I’d have to find a way to start climbing those stairs..

[AppyPappy]

I hate elevators. I was in a 12 story building and one day the elevator went to the 13th floor. Then it went into free fall. I got it to stop on the 4th floor.

The individuals have medical conditions that prevented them from climbing 20 flights of stairs

Maybe this should be looked at, like size restrictions on getting on a amusement park ride. The good news is there is a bar and restaurant there so staying there while the elevator gets fixed should be just fine.

[Mr. K]

why can’t some volunteers walk down and carry them up?

I mean seriously... Take it one flight at a time, one arm over your shoulder... I would volunteer to help do that.

10 healthy strong volunteers, two helping each person...How is this national news?

I go by that place twice a week.

BTW..for all you who might travel through. DO NOT go over the speed limit in Peach Springs!

And get your gas BEFORE you go through Seligman or any of the places along Rt 66...get it at Williams or Kingman.

[crz]

BTW..coming from Kingman, before you get to Truxton, or after if coming from Peach Springs way, look at the bluffs on the north side of 66. The end one looks like an Indian chief pointing looking at it at the right angle.

[DouglasKC]

Kind of a melodramatic headljne.headline.. they were trapped in a hotel / restaurant.

[I want the USA back]

Nature gave us claustrophobia to warn us about going deep down into a hole in the ground in a steel cage that can stop working with no backup system.

[Ann Archy]

NIGHTMARE!!

In the meantime, the five tourists are staying inside the underground suite, which sleeps six people and costs $1,000 a night for two. The suite is equipped with two queen beds, a fold-out futon, an “RV-style” bathroom and a kitchenette with a microwave and a mini fridge.

Nice place to hang out if you choose the day Biden starts World War III...
