Camp Mystic describes itself as a private Christian summer camp for girls located on the banks of the Guadalupe River.<\/p>\n<p>The river rapidly rose early on the Fourth of July, catching many people off guard. Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick told reporters Friday the river rose about 26 feet in 45 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has described the devastation at the camp as &#8220;nothing short of horrific&#8221; after visiting the site over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It, and the river running beside it, were horrendously ravaged in ways unlike I&#8217;ve seen in any natural disaster,&#8221; Abbott <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/GregAbbott_TX\/status\/1941696145438175724\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">wrote on social media<\/a>. &#8220;The height the rushing water reached to the top of cabins was shocking.
