Cary Stayner - The Yosemite Slayer

THOMAS ROSSELAND WIBORG-THUNE
About this episode

Imagine if you will, dear listener, Yosemite National Park in California, USA. It is a place of unparalleled beauty. Clear streams running through wide forested valleys ringed by tumbling waterfalls. Above the valley towers awe-inspiring mountaintops that are famous the world over. If you have Apple TV, you are probably accustomed to seeing the slow moving film of Yosemite’s Half Dome and El Capital looming above Yosemite Valley. Tourists flock to the national park in the millions every year, and even your humble host has visited Yosemite when he was 13 years old way back in 1994. I remember the trip to Yosemite vividly and urge all my dear listeners to go there if you have the opportunity to do so. But, take safety precautions. The most dangerous animal in Yosemite National Park is not the mountain lion, but man.
