The two have killed about 380 feet from a popular viewing spot in Blythe Canyon National Park in Utah, authorities said Tuesday that the day their bodies were recovered.
Garfield County Sheriff's Office spokesman Wade Matthews said it was unclear what led to their waterfalls and how long their bodies were there, but it seemed that the man and woman had climbed the safe railing.
As of noon Wednesday, officials had not made public the names of the two people who said they were living in a truck in U-Haul at the time of their deaths and had their last known address in Florida.
Their bodies were found by tourists, according to the sheriff's office. Emergency responders used helicopters in the recovery process.
Snow fell on the ground on the top of the cliff earlier this week, but authorities said it may have created a slippery condition.
A point of inspiration above the chimney-like rock formations known as Hoodoo is one of the more famous scenery along the rim trails of Bryce Canyon National Park in southern Utah. The landscape forms a natural amphitheater and is particularly popular at sunrise.
Between the trail and the edge of the cliff, there is a safety rail with chain link fencing at the bottom.
The National Park Service could not immediately comment Wednesday.
