It is not obvious, farm and construction workers are out all day in the same conditions and rarely die. Not only that, it is extremely strange for two healthy people to die in close proximity (time and location) to each other from heat conditions.

People rarely die of heatstroke in national parks. As for construction workers, it is a known hazard, and workers still die.

Never makes the news though.

But not all of them at the same time. If one had succumbed, the other would have gone for help. This is so obvious. It was FA/murder suicide. I guarantee this is why we are no hearing anything more. It's sad and obviously nobody wants that to be made public.

Once you both are at the bottom of the hill, it doesn't matter if one turns back. Neither was making it up the hill in those conditions. Especially someone without water.

For people who are unfamiliar, take a look at the SL trail using Google Earth. When the change in elevation requires switchbacks to get up the trail, it is steep. And in 109+ degree heat and direct sun, might as well have been Everest. The truck was so close but much too far, tragically.

Christ on a cracker!
I had never looked at their trail on Google earth, but did just now... those switchbacks are insane. 😱

In full sun, with temps over 109 in Devil's Gulch, they sadly could not make it up. Not only was the sun baking down (tree cover having burned in 2018 fire) but the canyon was radiating up heat. It had to be brutal.

Days later, SAR dogs had to be pulled because they were burning their paws on the trail and one LE was overcome by heat on Wednesday morning, Sunday afternoon was hotter. LE also had difficulty with satellite phones where the bodies were found so I'm not even certain a PLB would have worked. They had to hike up higher to get a signal.

That canyon is deep and once you go down to the bottom it is going to be hell getting back out. On AllTrails many of the reviews from spring months mention the heat in the canyon. Devil's Gulch appears to be aptly named.

I give it about three posts before someone tells you that the trail must be safe or it wouldn't exist.

The counterargument is that people were out in the same heat and didn't randomly die. Of course, they ignore the other factors, like the trail or baby. "I once walked a mile in 100F over flat ground and I didn't die."

This.

The authorities are saying they're stumped. They've closed the trail as a precaution. People will be speculating until the official COD comes out. Probably heat stroke, but if they're interviewing a lot of people (as has been mentioned?), it seems to be more than heat stroke.

It’s odd to rule out suicide when all the toxicology results aren’t back yet.

But not all of them at the same time. If one had succumbed, the other would have gone for help. This is so obvious. It was FA/murder suicide. I guarantee this is why we are no hearing anything more. It's sad and obviously nobody wants that to be made public.

Did you not see the latest update from 9/30?

The latest LE update said that they ruled out suicide. Now, I don’t know how they can entirely rule it out, but do you really think they’re trying to cover something up?
