Another Canyon connoisseur
Thanks for demonstrating I'm not the only fan of "Over the Edge: Death in Grand Canyon"! The book is like a bag of salted peanuts, suitable for sustained and enjoyable nibbling and packed full of nutritious lessons. As Stephen Amidon points out, most fatalities in the Canyon have been the result of human stupidity rather than plain old bad luck. Reading these miniature life-and-death dramas brings back vivid memories of my own adventures in that awesome place. We must protect Arizona's spectacular beauty for future generations.
