Five Family Members Found Dead After Flash Flood in Utah Canyon, Police Say The sudden descent into chaos that befell Spencer Long and his family as they hiked in southern Utah's Sunglow campground is a heart wrenching reminder of nature's unpredictability.
A flash flood swept through the scenic red rock canyon, claiming the lives of five family members, including three young sons. The area has been plagued by intense rainfall and flooding over the past few years.
While authorities have not released the victims' names, it appears that the Long family was caught off guard by the rapidly rising waters.
