Death in Zion National Park: Stories of Accidents and Foolhardiness in Utah's Grand Circle Kindle Edition
In 2015, a group of seven hikers were killed when a sudden flood struck Keyhole Canyon in Zion National Park. Prior to that, the steep, narrow route to Angels Landing led to at least five fatalities. Numerous people have found that high, exposed places in Zion—such as rim trails—are bad places to be in lightning storms. Death in Zion National Park collects some of the most gripping accounts in park history of the unfortunate events caused by natural forces or human folly.

About the author

Born and raised in Rochester, NY, Randi Minetor discovered the backcountry wonders of America's national parks in 1992 with her husband, photographer/lighting designer Nic Minetor. That first trip changed her life, and by 2000, the Minetors had pledged to see all 391 (now 425) national parks in their lifetimes. They found a way to subsidize this passion in 2006, when they began writing and photographing books on the parks for The Globe Pequot Press (now Rowman & Littlefield). Today Randi has written more than 90 books, including seven books in the nonfiction "Death in the National Parks" series, ten hiking guides in New York State, several bird-finding guides, and even reference books on health topics. To date, they have visited 346 national parks. In addition, Nic's photography appears in eight Quick Reference Guides to the Birds, Trees, and Wildflowers of New York City and New York State, and the Trees and Wildflowers of the Mid-Atlantic States. The Minetors live in Rochester, NY.

Her book portrays the hapless souls who perished with much respect and gives them life again. Reading it made me feel that their deaths were not in vain since we all can learn from their mistakes.
Her tips at the end of the book were quite helpful and I'll take heed of them the next time I visit ANY park or wilderness area.
The photo, one of so many, was taken back in 2010 by my husband when he, our dog, and I spent some time in Zion.
