Two Drownings on Trinity River | San Jose News

Two tragic drownings in just days on the Trinity River are sending shockwaves through Humboldt County, warning locals of hidden dangers beneath the surface. A man vanished in a powerful current near Campbell Creek, and a woman’s tube flipped near Willow Creek — her life vest snagged on debris. Experts warn that even warm water hides lethal risks: cold shock, submerged obstacles, and shifting riverbeds from winter flows. Authorities stress that life jackets save lives — most victims weren’t wearing one. Don’t float alone, check weather and flow conditions, avoid alcohol, and heed the river’s power. Safety isn’t optional — it’s essential. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
