What the coverage shows

Both outlets center the same basic news that missing Australian hiker Jordan Yap has been found dead in Peru, and both frame him as a Melbourne man on a remote solo trek. The Independent adds the detail that he was preparing for a 120km hike through the Huayhuash range and last contacted friends and relatives on 14 September. The Guardian US is the only one to foreground family and friends remembering him and the quote about the “immense joy” he brought to others.
