PAGE, Ariz. (AP) — Authorities have recovered the body of a Greek tourist who apparently fell about 600 feet off a cliff at the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.

National Park Service rangers responded to a report Saturday that a man fell at the Horseshoe Bend Overlook. The body was later found at the base of the cliff near the Colorado River.

Authorities say 32-year-old Charalampos Grammatoglou, of Thessaloniki, Greece, was traveling with a small tour group.
