Several campers and staff were killed when a flash flood slammed into a summer camp for girls along the Guadalupe River in central Texas. CBC’s Eli Glaser examines how Camp Mystic’s location and layout may have contributed to the devastation.

One of Thompson's daughters, 10-year-old Mamie, was at Camp Mystic. Her 10-year-old niece was also in the cabin, and as it flooded, her daughter awoke and was soon being pulled through a window by three camp counselors, she said.
