(Photo courtesy of the Bureau of Land Management) Little Wildhorse Canyon in the San Rafael Swell is one of Utah's most popular hikes. Flash floods on Monday forced many hikers to run for their lives and claimed at least one victim. Joined by several other agencies, Emery County authorities mounted a massive search for others who may remain stranded in the slot canyons near Goblin Valley State Park.
