A father and daughter have both died while out hiking in temperatures exceeding 100°F.

Tragically a 23-year-old woman and her 52-year-old father reportedly got lost and later ran out of water while out hiking in Utah.

The pair, from Green Bay, Wisconsin, had been hiking in Canyonlands National Park on the Syncline Trail - where 'the air temperature at the time was over 100°F' in Moab - the nearest city to where they were discovered.
