After the local police station received a notification that someone had fallen into the canyon, they immediately dispatched special personnel to climb ropes and rappel, and cooperated with helicopters to conduct a two-way search. Finally, the man’s body was found on the side of the Colorado River valley. , Personal belongings must be stored in scenic lockers, including mobile phones and backpacks, which made it impossible for the police and the national park to confirm the true identity of the deceased in the first place.
Although the Grand Canyon is one of the tourist destinations that many people dream of, according to the statistics of the US media, it is the deadliest national principality in the United States. Because of the vast but extremely desolate terrain in the area, tourists often fall, disappear or even commit suicide. According to the news, as many as 56 people have been reported missing in the national park since 2018, and 6 of them were found and confirmed dead.
