10 Most Dangerous National Parks in America According to Coleman Concierge

Summer is heating up and it's time to get outside and explore the great outdoors. This post will cover the 10 most dangerous national parks in America with facts, figures, and good old-fashioned common sense. However, National Public Radio (NPR) reports that a quarter of American adults say they live in fear of being attacked in their own neighborhoods and Dendrophobia (Fear of Trees) is a clinical phobia. Research shows that 1 in 10 American adults and 1 in 5 teenagers will deal with a specific phobia disorder at some point in their lives. Many people are afraid of National Parks, which is understandable since the National Park service reports that 3,020 deaths were recorded in National Park Service (NPS) units between 2007 and 2020. We'll dig just a little deeper into why and where these deaths occurred to help you ground your fears. Spoiler alert - car crashes and rock climbing accidents cause far more fatalities than sasquatch attacks or encounters with cocaine bears.
