Who: A 50-year-old woman
Where: Angels Landing, Zion National Park, Utah
Her mistake: Looks like an accident
What happened: A woman was hiking alone to the top of Angels Landing, a rock fin that jets into the sky in Zion National Park. The narrow trail – sometimes just a few feet wide – has sheer dropoffs on both sides up to 1,000 feet.
There are chains along parts of the trail, but authorities said the woman slipped or tripped in an area where there were no chains and fell 1,000 feet to the bottom. Other hikers on the trail witnessed the accident and reported it. This is the second death on Angels Landing this year.

I know this will be an unpopular thought but I think they should close “Angel’s Landing”.
