A 68-year-old French tourist died in Death Valley after his car got stuck in the mud and he attempted to walk for help in scorching 116-degree heat. His companion flagged down a passing driver, leading to rescue crews finding him later that day — but it was too late. Park officials warn of the deadly risks posed by Death Valley’s extreme temperatures, isolation, and vast distances, especially as record-breaking heatwaves sweep across the U.S., echoing similar tragedies like those in the Grand Canyon this summer. The cause of death remains under investigation, while condolences go out to his family.
