NBC News' Morgan Chesky hospitalized with pulmonary edema during Zion National Park vacation.

NBC News correspondent Morgan Chesky was hospitalized with high-altitude pulmonary edema while on a trip to Utah’s Zion National Park. Chesky, who is based out of Dallas, Texas, shared photos of his scenic trip on Instagram Wednesday but interrupted the carousel with a photo of himself lying in a hospital bed with some sort of breathing tube. The broadcaster explained in the caption that he developed a fever after hiking Bryce Canyon and couldn’t catch his breath, but decided to try to hike in Zion the next day anyways. Chesky remains hospitalized in Utah.
