I’m not an avid hiker or outdoorsman.

But, just wondering, don’t they have marked trails which hikers are supposed to stay on, so they stay out of trouble like this?

Or are there many who intentionally go into dangerous areas????

These were rock climbers not hikers. Climb up rock faces, not hiking trails.

Apparently, the idiot was rock climbing without a rope and not hiking.

There are too many people, now dead, that would leave the trail to get a better picture. Even in streams that are no more than knee-deep, the strong current plus the slipperiness of the rocks are killers.
