Death Valley heat causes tourist to become confused — he drives off cliff and dies

I spent a week in the park one spring break on a university trip. Great trip, wouldn’t do summer. The rangers said the high heat times of summer is actually when one of their highest demand times.

“They all want to experience the hottest day of the year just to say they did it”.

I think these are the same people who drive out to the Grand Canyon from Vegas, spend 10 minutes looking at the view, and then get in to drive back.
