Another sad story.

While the article doesn't indicate the cause, I suspect heatstroke is a possibility.

The hiker had just moved here from North Dakota.

Wow, how sad! I'm at a loss for words.

She was in Usery Mt. Park. I am guessing that this was probably the Pass Mountain Trail. Hits me close to home because I have done this trail many times over the summer.

If she moved here from ND she probably was not ready for exerting herself in extreme midday Arizona heat.
