Death Gulch at Yellowstone is "a natural death trap for animals" due to CO2 and H2S accumulation. "At high concentrations..., these gases are lethal, and the death of one animal is thought to lure in others, who are then also overcome." Also, description of Wahb Springs.

Good Morning #Canada
I was in My local hardware store yesterday and saw that they had pallets of salt piled high. Just as spring is on the brink of pushing another winter from our memory, the salt mines have apparently turned the corner on earlier supply chain issues. Upon returning home my curiosity, and a lack of having anything important to do in #Retirement, prompted me to look at sources of road salt. I kinda knew it was mined in Ontario, because of Windsor Salt in (checks notes) Windsor. But I was surprised that Canada was a salt powerhouse in terms of production, and that the largest salt mine in the world is in Goderich, Ontario. More accurately, over 540 metres below the prettiest town in Ontario and extending 3.7km under Lake Huron.
