Taking a 13 year-old on that trail seems somewhat irresponsible.

Well, she became an angel shortly after landing.
There is a reason to be afraid of heights.

Taking myself on it would be irresponsible.

Being in Utah is like being on a different planet. Danger abounds.

I agree. When I lived in Utah even being a somewhat experienced hiker I didn’t attempt that. The narrows and Kolob Canyon on the other hand were absolutely fantastic.

How terrible. Feel awful for the girl and her family.

I stay away from ledges, period.

So you can’t let your 13 year old drive a bike on your quiet street without a helmet, but you can take them hiking on this trail?!

I remember driving down the Gemini bridge trail one day and thinking to myself “maybe this wasn’t such a great idea” as I looked at the 1,000 foot drop right outside my window.

We were at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon a few years ago and I asked a ranger how many people die from falling off each year. “Oh, about a dozen, almost all of them teen-aged boys” he said.

I wonder if a phone or selfie was in play?
