Read it in Spanish MANILA -- Three women used survival skills to keep themselves from harm after their boat overturned on rapids in the Green River.
Daggett County sheriff's deputies said it happened June 26 when the boat carrying three women from Vernal capsized, leaving them stranded on the south side of the Green River.
While the women awaited rescue, deputies said they built a fire, dried their clothes and had food and water. Rescuers floated down the river to pick them up.
The women were taken by ambulance to a local hospital to be evaluated.
