Hello everyone, in today's video I will be discussing the beauty, adventure, legends, and mysterious disappearances in Yosemite National Park.
#Yosemite National Park
#Disappearances

Since no one seems to read my pinned comments or description, Yes I know it's Alex Honnold in the one picture and I think Alex is amazing! That wasn't the point of including the picture! Unfortunately many people , especially younger people see these kinds of pics and try and replicate them or get a selfie.. Alex trained for over 2 years to do that climb, had several team members prep the rock, had a whole professional camera crew following him.. That's how the pic was able to get shot.. My point is, he's one in several billion that could successfully attempt something like that.. He's arguably the best climber in the world, and my point was people who aren't professionals , or have real training should attempt something like that. There was no disrespect meant towards Alex himself. I have the utmost respect for him, and had admired his amazing climbing skills for years!!

#Sandra Johnsen Hughes, 54
Reported missing on July 4, 2020

Sandra moved from Hawaii to self isolate in the Sierra by solo camping. (to help prevent herself from being exposed to covid)

The authorities found her silver Saab that had hit a tree, and later found her disheveled campsite.
Her car, a silver Saab, was found on July 5 off a dirt road near the Chiquito Pass trailhead, five miles north of the campsite, according to a Facebook post from her niece. It had apparently hit a tree.

She was Last seen in August 2020 by 2 hikers saying she was bruised and looked a lot thinner than her missing posters.. they offered help but she declined.

That was the last she was seen.

I also talk about a handful of other disappearances that happened in Yosemite, along with various local legends of the park. various dangers, and things to keep in mind.
