"The Schmeirers had stopped in Amboy on their way to Palm Springs, according to The Desert Sun. Palm Springs is about 98 miles south of Amboy. The couple were last seen alive on June 2 at the Amboy Crater National Natural Landmark, the sheriff’s department said. 
On June 13, U.S. Bureau of Land Management officials reported the Schmeirers' car had been parked in the Amboy Crater Trailhead parking lot for about 10 days and appeared abandoned, according to the sheriff’s department.

Authorities immediately conducted a search of the area from above, but couldn’t find the victims. However, on June 16, when officials conducted an extensive search that included a helicopter, search and rescue volunteers and a trained search dog, they found the remains of a man matching William Schmeirer’s description, according to a news release. 
"By 10:30 a.m., ground temperatures hit 130 degrees and by 2:00 p.m., the ground temperatures reached 165 degrees with an air temperature of 117 degrees," the sheriff’s department said.

Because it was so hot, officials had to stop using the search dogs. The weather, as well as the rough terrain, disabled two of the sheriff’s off-road search and rescue vehicles.
The sheriff's department added that they don't suspect foul play. "
