A man and his 14-year-old stepson have both died in a double tragedy while hiking in extreme heat.
The unnamed 31-year-old had been hiking the Marufo Vega Trail in Texas on Friday with his two stepsons from Florida amid scorching 119F (48C) temperatures when they ran into difficulty, according to the National Park Service.
They had been at Big Bend Park, a reserve on the US-Mexico border known for its difficult-to-reach rocky desert terrain.
