A father-daughter hike on Half Dome in Yosemite National Park turns deadly after warnings from park rangers are ignored. Since the cable was installed 103 years ago, in total 10 people have died on the cable route and 6 of them occurred when the granite was wet, including the most recent tragedy in July 2024. This is a cautionary tale of the most recent death in Yosemite.
