Deaths in Choprock Canyon
This sucks. I really feel for the families of these guys. One guy left behind a wife of one year. Practically newlywed. Choprock is a very tough canyon. But at the same time, these guys weren't amateurs either. I wonder what happened?

(KSL News) -- Tragic, breaking news from Southern Utah tonight. The bodies of two missing hikers from BYU have been found in Garfield County.
A Dive team found the bodies of Brad Underwood and John Anderson in a slot canyon in 10 to 15 feet of water. The bodies were located about 4:00 this afternoon.
Garfield County tells us that family members have identified the two men. They had been on a canyoneering trip near Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. When they didn't return on Saturday a search was launched.
