The body of a woman who had been missing for three days was discovered on Sunday after she had been swept up in a flash flood near the Grand Canyon in Arizona that required the rescue of more than 100 people, officials said.
The body of Chenoa Nickerson, 33, was discovered by a commercial river trip on the Colorado River about 20 miles (30 km) downstream of where she went missing on Thursday, the U.S. National Park Service said in a statement.
Nickerson, from the Phoenix suburb of Gilbert, was swept into Havasu Creek without a life jacket, the park service said.
Havasu Creek is a tributary of the Colorado River that joins the larger waterway just before it enters Arizona's Grand Canyon National Park.
The aerial, ground and rescue vehicle search was concentrated on the confluence of Havasu Creek and the Colorado River, the park service said.
