The first fatality involved a 72-year-old man who died on 12 June while hiking the South Kaibab Trail, followed by a 67-year-old man and a 68-year-old woman found dead four days later on the North Kaibab Trail. All three individuals succumbed to suspected heat-related illnesses on trails within the park's inner canyon, where temperatures can exceed 109 degrees Fahrenheit in the shade. Park officials have issued a strong recommendation for visitors to avoid hiking on inner canyon trails between 10 am and 4 pm, citing the dangerous heat levels that can quickly overwhelm hikers.
