a man died after he slipped down a long, granite hill and fell into a river, injuring his head, according to the Associated Press.
Andrew Munoz, a spokesman for the National Park Service, told the AP that the investigation into the man’s death is taking longer than usual because of the ongoing shutdown. He added that the shutdown also delayed the park service's announcement of the man’s death.

Three people have died in national parks around the country, including a 14-year-old girl who fell 700 feet down a canyon, since the start of the government shutdown, during which the Trump administration chose to keep the parks open.

The individuals involved here seem to have left their common sense behind at the park entrances.
There will likely be copycats who want to experience the same sorts of catastrophes.

Even with the National Park Staff on duty, Yosemite National Park (which is just a couple hours drive from where I live) has been a veritable death trap over the years. People have fallen to their deaths when hiking alongside the sheer cliffs, fallen from the rock walls and have been swept over the falls. The next time I go, I intend to remain with my feet well-planted on the Valley floor.
About as predictable as Trump Derangement Syndrome on the left.
Um ... nobody in the thread blamed Trump for anything, and no wall (which YOU brought up) would prevent any of these deaths unless you built the wall 2 feet below a cliff in Yosemite.
Are you sure you puked your usual garbage onto the thread you meant to? Since this has nothing to do with the dirty, dirty Mexicans you're so terrified of, like at all.
Presumably the assumption here is that if the government wasn't shut down, there would have been more staff in the park that would have protected those people. But whatever, go back to your derangement.
