    I think I’ve mentioned the book “Death in Yellowstone” before. He goes through and summarizes the many ways people have managed to off themselves in the park.

    Chapter 1 is hot springs. Chapter 2 is bears.

    I finally managed to pick up a good used copy of Over The Edge: Death in Grand Canyon at one of Half-Price’s sales. (I haven’t read all of it yet, though I did read the chapter on plane crashes.)

    I haven’t gotten Death in Yellowstone yet, though it is on the list. Also on the list: Off the Wall: Death in Yosemite.
