Summary

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is one of the nation’s best “hidden” jewels. It’s the perfect destination, until it isn’t. The park can be a risky place to be with notoriously rough coastal waters when weather turns, but it wasn’t until 2006 when it saw its first documented fatal fall. Since then, what truly happened surrounding Juanita Richardson’s death among the cliffs of Pictured rocks has been a topic of fierce speculation. The event tore a family apart, and this story proves the most dangerous risk of all could be sitting right next to you.For the latest NPAD updates, group travel details, merch and more, follow us on npadpodcast.com and our socials:Instagram: @‌nationalparkafterdarkTikTok: @‌nationalparkafterdarkSupport the show by becoming an Outsider and receive ad free listening, bonus content and more on Patreon or Apple Podcasts.
