hey /out/, redpill me on the mass disappearances at national parks, particularly the case of Dennis Martin. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X8QZ0kNUhsk
This is just one example; google turns up hundreds of unexplained cases of people vanishing at national parks. Some of the cases are pretty horrifying and defy explanation. Are they all just natural and involve people getting lost? Are there really "wild men" that attack people and are not talked about by the authorities? It's actually kinda spooky, reassure me please.

I read a creepypasta about this once. In the story, if you go really deep into the wilderness, you might accidentally wander into a hole in the space time continuum (or something like that). It could teleport you anywhere on the planet, and in any time period. So Dennis Martin here might be miles down in the earth's crust, 10,000 years in the past.

>op wonders why so many people go missing in it

OP, how about other locations? Like how many people visit x place or city vs how many people go missing in those places vs the same states for national parks? You need to do this for tourists. Like how many tourists visit NYC then go missing or something.

After that, access your question again.

Kiwifag here, around 2 months ago a German tourist got lost in Mt Egmont national park. That place is a fucking kids park, it's the middle of summer and it's only around a 9 hour walk until you reach farmland, and probably only 2 days if your sense of direction is completely fucked.
They buzzed helis around for a solid month and had dogs all through the bush, and found nothing. So I'm guessing she didn't break a leg or else the dogs would have found her.
Or she just tried to fake her death.

These answer pretty much everything.

Even when someone dies after getting lost there's a pretty good chance the body will get scavenged before anyone finds it. Just think of how few people who go to the US national parks ever actually go into the back country. Now reduce that small percentage to the number that wander around off-trail.

Or they're in Yellowstone and they fall into one of the acid hot springs.

Same kiwifag from the post above you, I got shown a picture of a body they found in a hot pit when I was doing goat control for a summer. Theyre no joke, normally theyre covered with bush and then you fall 5 meters and land in boiling mud.

I live in Alaska and I went looking for a hiker earlier this week, she's still missing and the troopers called off the search. Couple of years ago and it was the same thing, in our town, they go hiking and the police find the cars at the trail heads and you never see them again. The nickname for it is the "Alaska Triangle"

For national parks
305 million visitors in 2015
330 million in 2016
More this year as average growth is 7% a year

So yeah chances are low as fuck somthing will happen for normal tourists, hikers, hunters and people doing sport.
Missing people can happen, accidents happen, corpses are hard to find. Hell think dead deer, piles of them die all the time yet you rarely find corpses. They get eaten and the bones scattered and covered by foliage.

Like that lady that was found like half a year ago that got posted here a lot. That got lost and lived for 26 days till death, Geraldine Largay, on the appalapian trail or so. Found 2 years later by pure chance because of her big tent.
But spooky storys can be sold, books, videos its click bait and murderporn.

Random car accidents have higher risks etc

In germany, even though the forrests arent that big normally, people sometimes cannot find back to trails etc, because they simply start wandering in circles. By that, people can sometimes get out, even though they are only a kilometer away from the next village.

Furthermore, rapists...

You can't really fix stupid. People go to these places thinking they can't get hurt and common sense goes out the window because they're on vacation. Just look at how many people try to take selfies with bison or moose and gored every year, now multiply that stupidity by wandering off into the wilderness and of course people are going to go missing.

Different anon here, but just because you think about death doesn't mean you're suicidal. I started going gray prematurely and went through a year-long weird period where I thought multiple times a day about getting old and eventually dying.

Sometimes when I'm backpacking and watching the sunset with my coffee in the evenings I'll still think about what it will be like to get old and die. It's oddly comfy to think about.

Plus, now I'm early thirties with sophisticated-looking broad white streaks at my temples.

About 20 years ago a family was camping in Joshua Tree, youngest daughter disappears. They call cops, cops look around, find nothing, sorry folks.
Family hires detective, he finds 29 Palms, Yucca Valley, Landers has highest percentage of registered sex offenders in California, never find girl.
That area still gives the creeps and I grew up in the high desert and have met my fair share of creepy people when /out/.

He was either really stupid or trying to kill himself. He started at the Sand Pit and hiked over to Milwaukee peak. I'm presuming it was a ridge hike. That had to be a soft snow slog from hell as the sun would be nailing it early. I'm betting he was some weirdo or trying to kill himself.
