Or the heart attack whilst screaming! Nah, 21, too young. Always wondered what I would think facimg a death such as that. You know you have about a 99.999% chance of meeting your maker.
I think if I had worked there when I was a youngster, I would have carried a backpack with all sorts of things to break my fall. Small parachute? Axe to catch the mountain? Whatever.

Socializing = drinking alcohol to excess.

why do you assume that she wasn't here legally???? After reading post #3, I'd say the assumption is totally your own.

“why do you assume that she wasn’t here legally????”
She probably was here legally. But she was not an American. Seems a bit odd that we would need to hire folks from outside the US to work in a National Park, but then, the concession jobs there aren’t exactly fun. Still, they used to have lots of applicants for them.

She was a beauty, and apparently loved by a lot of people. May she rest in peace.

No Americans want to work in a national park?

Why would you assume a 21 year old from Ecuador isn't a foreigner?

I had a girl friend when I was a youngster who was an American. She loved excitement. She went to work on a cattle run in Wyoming somewhere,
People from all over the world love that sort of excitement. But not me...

What was someone from Ecuador doing working at a National Park? When I was a kid, college students would kill for those jobs. I guess now they are too busy with Pokémon to have a job. No wonder they want the taxpayers to pay for their college level indoctrination and programing.

Stay away from cliffs. People don’t bounce very well.

Its not the fall that kills you; its the sudden stop at the end. Just as "fear of flying" is really fear of crashing.

It says she was from Quito, Ecuador? Has America been indulging in Imperialistic Colonization again?

Me, too. Just looking down makes me queazy. Skiing doesnt. Guess it has to do with control or something.
Same here. Like to hike in the mountains but looking down from the top can be disturbing. But a nice snowy mountain to ski down doesn’t bother me.

I quit flying in ‘96 after TWA800 went down. If I can’t drive there, I don’t need to go.

That’s the OTHER Grand Canyon, Sam — aka Grand Canyon of the Colorado River — in Arizona. The fall occurred at the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone River — in Wyoming.

She loved excitement. She went to work on a cattle run in Wyoming... Have you ever been around cattle? It's not very exciting.
There is something about being stepped on by a cow when you're a little kid. It doesn't hurt because your bare foot mashes unto the cow patties.

Thanks for the correction. But still a long fall from the cliff, is it not?
