For the love of God, don’t go swimming in a Yellowstone hot spring.
First of all, it will kill you.
Second of all, those springs are acid, and will dissolve your dead body.
We haven’t had a musical interlude in a while. Let’s fix that. Besides, this is a rather catchy little ditty,
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.
