Maps show how heavy rainfall and rocky terrain helped create the devastating Texas floods that have killed more than 120 people.

Teens at the Pot O’ Gold Christian Camp near Comfort, Texas, were swamped by a wall of water as they tried to escape.

The region of Texas where flash flooding killed more than 90 people -- including dozens of campers -- is known for its tendency to experience flood emergencies.

At least 161 are still unaccounted for after the July Fourth floods that saw the waters of the Guadalupe rise to historic levels in Central Texas, officials with Kerr County said Friday. Authorities have confirmed 103 deaths, 36 of whom are children.

"We will handle this page with the reverence it deserves and hopefully unite owners and loved ones with their belongings," says the FB page.

For many, Friday’s flood brought back memories of an eerily similar tragedy, when the Guadalupe River swelled in 1987, killing 10 North Texas teenagers. Those victims, along with more than 33 others who were injured, were trying to escape a Hill Country summer camp when a wall of water washed over them.
