The woman was 56 when she died, succumbing to heat and dehydration in Utah’s Quail Creek State Park on Sunday afternoon, reported a local authority. USA Today said the accident happened on Sunday afternoon when it reached a boiling point of 106 degrees Fahrenheit.
On hearing about a woman in distress who was hiking near the park, Hurricane City Police Department confirmed that their officers were alerted. The trail led to an unconscious woman who could not be resuscitated and pronounced dead.

In several cases this year hikers have died while trekking across the Southwestern region due to hot temperatures first time. It was during July when Austin, Texas-based Scott Sims aged 69 died after collapsing on the tracks at Grand Canyon National Park with temperatures reaching above 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Death Valley National Park killed another German by foresting the passing away of Jurgen Fink aged 61 in early July but only three days later Belyruth Ordóñez a lady younger than her by thirty years perished from extreme heat which also left her parents hospitalized. Her parents got sick from so much sunburn leading them to death.
By surviving for some hours they prolonged their lives thus saving themselves after becoming lost and running out water because Albino Herrera Espinoza aged fifty two and Beatriz Herrera twenty three from Green Bay, Wisconsin lost their lives on July twelve at Canyonlands National Park.
