Sheriff’s officials say the crash is still under investigation.
The four were part of a larger group on a camping trip in the Payson area. They were reported missing Saturday when they did not return from ATV riding.
Deputies determined their ATV somehow went off a forest road and fell 400 feet (122 meters).
A small fire sparked by the crash initially made it difficult for rescuers to reach the scene.
