The local medical examiner s office is investigating Meder s death to establish the exact cause of death. According to the National Weather Service, the temperature at Phantom Ranch, near the bottom of the Grand Canyon, hit 116 degrees on Saturday. On Sunday, it reached 115 degrees. According to the Associated Press, the temperature on the canyon s South Rim is roughly 20 degrees lower than at the bottom. Summer temperatures on exposed portions of the route may reach above 120 degrees in the shade, according to the Park Service, and rangers advise tourists to avoid trekking in the inner canyon between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. The majority of persons seeking emergency medical assistance in the canyon due to heat sickness do so within these hours, according to the statement.
