   A man and his daughter died on Friday after running out of water in the   
   Canyonlands National Park in Utah during a day when temperatures rose over   
   100 degrees, authorities said.   
      
   The bodies of Albino Herrera Espinoza, 52, and Beatriz Herrera, 23, both   
   of Green Bay, Wisconsin, were found at about 6 p.m. on Friday, according   
   to a statement from the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office.   
      
   The hikers became lost while hiking the Syncline Loop Trail and their   
   bodies were taken off the mountain on Saturday morning by helicopter, the   
   sheriff’s office said.   
      
   The air temperature at the time the man and his daughter became lost was   
   over 100 degrees, according to the National Park Service.   
      
   Park visitors are advised to carry and drink plenty of water and avoid   
   strenuous activity during the daytime, according to the park service.   
      
   As of Monday, there have been 59 confirmed heat-related deaths throughout   
   the country in 2024. Most of the deaths have occurred in western states   
   California, Arizona, Oregon and Nevada, with Arizona and Oregon both   
   having 16 deaths each. But there have also been deaths in eastern states   
   such as Maryland, New York, Virginia and Pennsylvania.   
      
   There have also been 21 unconfirmed heat-related deaths in the country.   
      
   Last week, the West was hit by a historic heat wave, which generated seven   
   consecutive days of temperatures of 115 degrees or higher in Las Vegas.   
      
   The sweltering heat has not been contained to just one half of the United   
   States. On Tuesday, in New York City, the heat index in Central Park made   
   it feel like 96 degrees. At Newark Liberty International Airport in New   
   Jersey, that figure was 103.
