Readers of the morbid yet mesmerizing Off the Wall: Death in Yosemite will be aware of the surprising fact that more people die on the Mist Trail than almost anywhere else in Yosemite. It's not the waterfalls or the cliffs that are the culprits; it's the current. The river here apparently looks much less dangerous than it actually is. Typically, a hiker slips into the water and finds the current too strong to overcome, then gets swept to a regrettable death somewhere downstream. So please be careful when you're near the river.

Surprisingly, it is really the most dangerous trail in Yosemite.
We knew, if we had read about it earlier, we would not have hike that trail..
PS.
There is no pot of gold in the end of a rainbow.
