Were you in the Mt St Helens area?  I know Lava Canyon Falls on the SW side had a few years where there was one incident after another.

>Last summer, somewhere in the Washington Cascades, my wife and I hiked a short distance to a waterfall where there was a plaque giving the names and dates and ages of those who had fallen to their deaths while trying to get a better view. There were about a dozen! The top of that fall was very well fenced. I don't remember the name of that fall?   Does anyone on this list know its name?
