Local New Braunfels paper:

Just last week two people died on the Guadalupe. One was a soldier who was trying to swim across the river & the other flipped a raft & got caught on it & was stuck under the bridge in Gruene.
The Comal River (in town) is normally always ready for tubers. But with all the rain the Guadalupe river is just not too safe right now for tubing.
