Article from the Mercury News.

"The start of the rain and snow season in the central Sierra Nevada park has begun to swell the Merced River, which means that the opportunity to find the bodies likely has passed until next summer."

Eww. I remember these guys going over the edge . There were also several killed before I went in May. I find it odd that the bodies could dissapear in sucha populous place, and IF they ever turn up they may be very decomposed. Its very tragic and morbidly interesting.

I watched a video on Youtube of a guy at the cables who scrambles out onto the rock to save a mobile phine battery, It gave me the willies just watching him, risking his life and others for a mobile phone battery
