As the temperature soared to a record-breaking 128 degrees Fahrenheit in Death Valley National Park, a group of motorcyclists encountered distress from the extreme heat with one of them dying. The incident occurred as they were touring near Badwater Basin, the lowest point in North America. The heat also impacted the rescue efforts due to temperatures exceeding 120 degrees Fahrenheit, preventing medical helicopters from accessing the park.
