Over the years there have been thousands of people who've died in Yosemite.

Some of the people have died due to lack of water or other medical conditions while other people have died from falling off the Yosemite mountain.

It's estimated that between 2 to 3 people die from falling off the Yosemite Canyon each year and in 2017 it's estimated that 10 people have fallen to their death either due to accidents or suicide.

I have never visited Yosemite but hope to one day before I do actually die and if I die in old age at Yosemite then that would be a wonderful place to hang out until I pass away.
