Ugh fuck off dude this is a mile from the trailhead. I know you probably send super hard and do CrossFit and ski miur in the same day or whatever, but that isn't the point now is it?

We all go off trail to climb. The point here is that this is a very, very popular waterfall where people have died from this exact circumstance.

I'm sure you take your toddler free soloing in j tree too.

Is it? I could've sworn there was a bit of trail that hooks around out of frame on the right (and gives other vantages) and allows access to that area from above and behind out of frame, basically going down a small bank before the falls.

Been a couple years since I've been there, so perhaps I'm mistaking it for another set of falls though.

I don't understand your question.

Literally the most annoying thing I find on Reddit, is people telling other people how they need to live their lives

The kid would be much better off in bean bag with an iPad surly. How about this, it’s OKAY that people die sometimes when they do stupid things, that’s the consequence. But negotiating obstacles like this, with an infant is well within our capabilities and DNA, go back 3 or 4 generations and see.
