Most people expect their honeymoon to be a happy, momentous occasion filled with warm memories. Few expect to set out and never return again.

On November 18, 1928, when Glen and Bessie Hyde said goodbye to brothers Ellsworth and Emery Kolb, they set out to begin walking down a path leading to the Colorado River. There, the Hydes had a boat tied up and they planned to spend the following weeks floating down the rapids in the Colorado and Green rivers for their extended honeymoon that they had begun the previous October.

In an eerie foreshadowing of the events that would follow, Emery Kolb’s young daughter appeared just before the Hydes were out of the line of sight and Bessie Hyde remarked on the little girl’s fashionable outfit saying, “I wonder if I shall ever wear pretty shoes again.” The couple then waved and departed to board their boat and shove off into the Colorado River.

Neither of them was ever seen again.
