SALT LAKE CITY — Salt Lake City police said Sunday they discovered a human body several miles up City Creek Canyon.

The body was in "an extensive state of decay," according to Salt Lake City Police Lt. Brett Olsen.

Olsen said detectives were on the scene, but that it's far too early to determine a cause of death because of the condition of the body.
