Iowan’s Body Found in Grand Canyon

Rangers at Grand Canyon National Park have recovered the body of an Iowa man who reportedly fell from the rim of the canyon west of Mather Point. Park rangers say they received a call Tuesday afternoon about a park visitor falling off the rim. A helicopter crew was able to locate the body about 280 feet below the rim. Due to the time of day, rangers suspended the operation until Wednesday morning when they recovered the body via a helicopter long line.
