Tragic Kayaking Accidents Claim Lives of Newly Engaged Couples.

A kayaker, Travis Valenti, is presumed dead after his kayak began sinking and he disappeared into near-freezing water while kayaking with his fiancée on Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park in Washington state. Neither of them were wearing a life jacket at the time of the incident. Valenti's fiancée was able to swim to shore to alert staff from the nearby Log Cabin Resort that her partner had become submerged and was struggling to swim back. Rangers searched for Valenti by vessel for more than 2-hours but were unable to locate him.
