There is zero chance 4 beings succumb to heat stroke simultaneously. I have never heard of a CO cloud--sounds like quicksand or something from a comic book/70s TV show.
.... Is that really true? All the time? Plus, this isn't like they were camping in some frequented park and were killed by a crazy. It would have to be targeted.
There is no way a '3rd party murderer' is waiting in 110F heat to chloroform someone, let alone struggle with two adults and a dog to do it.
These people aren't worth the cost of hiring an assassin that would both have the experience to kill in that manner and was willing to do it in 100F weather.
Easier to put a bullet in each skull.
"From 2007 to 2018, there were a total of 2,727 at a U.S. National Parks site. "
So over 12 years, 227 deaths/year. Or generously, one per day across the entire US park system. It happens, but that is not common. The risk is negligible.
My point is not that murders in parks don't happen. They happen. But its with the easiest weapon and method available. Not some expensive assassin that needs to leave no trail for a SAHM and a Snapchat employee.

Which makes a third party killing even more unlikely.

And both deaths clearly and immediately labeled as likely exposure and case closed after small cursory investigation. Which would have been the case if it looked like this is what happened here.
It wasn't two hikers hiking together who died almost simultaneously 1.5 miles from their car.
There's little evidence of it being simultaneous. Likely, hours apart.

19-yo girl almost dies of heatstroke on a short hike near Las Vegas while hiking back down to their car.
I've been to Red Rock in August and went maybe half a mile in before turning around. It's no joke when it's that hot and there is no shade regardless of how much water you have.

Distance to a car is completely irrelevant.
+1 Based on the info we have, we don’t know if they did a loop of 6 or 7 miles,, a down and back, or something else. We do know that the fastest way back to their truck from the location where the bodies were found is a steep incline with elevation gains variously reported as 1500 or 2000 ft over that distance.

The article says they're still investigating the cause of death. Heatstroke was initially suspected by the individuals who discovered the body and was then reported by the media.

It homicides are very rare. 95% of intentional deaths in national parks are from suicide.
Not that rare, and I do not believe that all people who "fall" off of cliffs were not pushed.

I guess I took this to mean they don’t think there’s a murder on the loose who attacked them on the trail. I didn’t take it to mean they’d ruled out FA.
Murder/suicide involves murder so if they say murder isn't high on their list....

Exactly, they say that so people won't panic. I know it's horrible for the family to comprehend, but there is only one logical explanation. Authorities did not release all their information. It's FA.
You are reading a plain statement very strangely. Not murder means not murder, including not murder-suicide.
