I feel the same way. I've hiked a few times at one of the locations in these photos with my 8 year old son (under close supervision). I think it's a great way to build a sense of responsibility and humility.
Unfortunately, that also makes it inherently more dangerous. Just a month ago, three tourists went missing at that location. [1]

I feel the same way, I am a social Darwinist too.
