Arkansas Flood Victims--trees

I started to read, for the first time, the news about this flood and how they're still looking for people. Before I even got to the section where someone says there may be people under fallen trees and other debris, I had "trees" come to mind, that people need to move trees and look harder underneath the trees.

Maybe it's not right, but it did come to my mind for some reason, before I even got to the part of the article where someone is mentioned talking about how there COULD be people under trees so this was a confirmation enough for me to write this and put it out there.

Unfortunately, I don't know that they will be alive, but I think there is something to looking under trees.

Probably some larger machinery needs to be moved in to get them out of the way.

I had this impression of trees about 2-3 sentences into an article. I haven't seen any photos of the area so I wasn't basing a guess off of this. It was something that popped to mind. I think they need to get the trees out of the way, through helicopters lifting them or other machinery...I don't know what else you would use to get in, because then it was saying it was a campground. I read there was a river maybe nearby but my impression isn't that there are tons downriver or anything, but stuck under trees.
