美国亚利桑那州大峡谷国家公园周六下午遭遇山洪灾害1。这场洪水由科罗拉多高原的强降雨引发,20分钟内降雨1英寸1,导致至少1人死亡、15人失踪,超过60人被疏散1。遇难者系一名46岁男性,其遗体于周日晚间在科罗拉多河水晶急流附近被发现1。
目击者Parth Desai描述了洪水的猛烈程度:"我们看到小溪泛滥,瀑布凭空出现,巨石、泥土、山体滑坡到处发生"1。山洪摧毁了几乎所有光明天使溪上的步道桥,并损坏了公园唯一的水管道,引发供水限制1。受灾最严重的是光明天使峡谷和幻影牧场区域1。
为应对灾情,公园已关闭了Bright Angel Campground、Phantom Ranch和North Kaibab Trail的部分区域1。从周一起,园内酒店和旅馆的住宿已暂停1,科罗拉多河漂流活动也已停止1。
A devastating flash flood swept through Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona on Saturday afternoon around 2:30 p.m., leaving at least one person dead and 15 others missing 1. More than 60 visitors were evacuated from the affected areas 1. The torrent, triggered by heavy rainfall on the Colorado Plateau, dumped approximately one inch of rain within just 20 minutes 1.
The body of a 46-year-old male victim was discovered late Sunday near Crystal Rapids on the Colorado River 1. Eyewitness Parth Desai described the harrowing scene, stating: "We saw the creek overflow, waterfalls appear out of nowhere, and boulders, mud, and rockslides happening everywhere" 1. The flood devastated infrastructure throughout the Bright Angel Canyon and Phantom Ranch areas, destroying nearly all trail bridges across Bright Angel Creek and damaging the park's only water pipeline, which imposed strict water usage restrictions 1.
In response to the disaster, park officials closed multiple zones including Bright Angel Campground, Phantom Ranch, and sections of the North Kaibab Trail 1. Beginning Monday, all lodging facilities within the park suspended guest accommodations, and Colorado River rafting trips were halted 1.
