A tragic incident unfolded in Canyonlands National Park in Utah as a father and daughter from Wisconsin lost their lives while hiking in scorching temperatures. Albino Herrera Espinoza, 52, and his daughter, Beatriz Herrera, 23, were visiting the park from Green Bay, Wisconsin, and were exploring the Syncline Loop Trail when they ran out of water in temperatures exceeding 100 degrees.
The pair, who owned a well-known Mexican restaurant in Green Bay, were discovered deceased just 15 minutes apart on Friday evening after authorities were alerted to a deceased hiker in the Upheaval Dome area of the park. A search operation was promptly initiated by NPS rangers and a helicopter crew from the Bureau of Land Management Moab District.
