its children’s nature that they want to avoid things which may harm their loved ones.

Ed, my family and I shared similar thoughts as did you on our recent vacation to sunny California. The Grand Canyon was one of the highlights of our trip. It was our first time seeing the canyon and we truly enjoyed the view.

my boyfriend’s dad is cheif of maintainence there…people die all the time lol. but mainly because they go down in the canyon unprepared. if you go hiking, you must take plenty of water and food, and tell someone when you’re going and when you’ll be back. it is really beautiful though, because they live a mile from the south rim and can bike to see it everyday.

I’ve got a book that’s called “Death in the Grand Canyon.” The author researched every death in the canyon, then categorized them by chapter and told the stories. No. 1 killer is plane crashes, though most of the plane crash deaths come from one incident back in the 50s.

Ed, You really do need to spend a couple days there. It’s truly one of Mother Nature’s most splendid works. You need to either raft the Colorado, or take a mule ride from the rim down to the river, preferably, both!
