Summary
Grand Canyon braces for another deadly heatwave as temperatures soar past 110°F, following three recent hiker deaths—warning visitors that the climb back up from the canyon floor is now dangerously lethal. Park officials urge everyone to avoid hiking during peak heat, as conditions inside the canyon are far more brutal than at the rim, and the western U.S. is locked in a punishing heatwave with no relief until monsoon season. Meteorologists say this is peak summer heat—and the only safe option? Stay home or hike only during the coolest hours. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
