Several days ago. They were camped on the Missouri River near Ft Thompson SD.
They heard it but had no time. Rolled the camper 3 times lifting it over a power pole. Fortunately a big tree stopped it from going into the river. The tree had been knocked over but base held.

They were very lucky with minor injuries. Camper distroyed.
