From Times Wire Reports

A 4-year-old girl on vacation at the Grand Canyon died after slipping off the canyon’s edge and falling several hundred feet.

The girl fell near Mather Point, and her father immediately scrambled down the cliffs to reach her, National Park Service spokeswoman Maureen Oltrogge said.

He started CPR, and a Park Service ranger who rappelled down also tried unsuccessfully to resuscitate the girl, Oltrogge said.
