A number of deaths have occurred at Yosemite's Nevada Fall over the years. In 2018, an 18-year-old visitor from Israel died after falling while taking photos near the top of Nevada Fall.
Nevada Fall is a 594-foot waterfall on the Merced River and is one of the major landmarks along Yosemite's popular Mist Trail.
