Rescuers found the bodies of two men after a flash flood swept through the Grand Canyon on Saturday.
A third man is still missing.
Officials said about 80 other people were rescued over the weekend.
The flood badly damaged the park's only water pipeline.
Officials stopped tourists from staying at lodges inside the park.
They also set emergency water limits for people who live there all year.
The flood hit the Bright Angel Creek area, which gets 4.4 million visitors a year.
Incident Cmdr. Dave Black said searchers used night vision and other tools.
By sunset Saturday, 45 people were rescued.
Another 37 were taken out on Sunday.
Rangers used the park's permit system and checked car license plates to find missing people.
Black said there is no reason to think anyone else is missing besides the one person not found.
The two dead men were named as John Giusti, a Texas chiropractor, and Brent Rosenkranz, 42, a martial arts studio owner.
The missing man is Timothy Smith, 53, a pilot from Wyoming.
The three men had ties to Granbury, Texas, and planned several days of hiking and camping together.
Their families said they last heard from them on Thursday.
