Today, Veramika Maikamava, The Most Recent Person to Lose Their Life Due to the Trail, Passed Away.
Chris McCandless was forced to travel across the Teklanika River before he could make his way back to civilised society. It ends up being the most dangerous segment of the journey. According to the chief of the local fire department, the river has claimed the lives of at least three hiking people. The most recent victim to pass away in 2019 was Veramika Maikamava, 24 years old.
Vermika was in the process of crossing the river with her husband when she became disoriented and was carried away by the current. Vermika’s body was eventually found downstream by her husband, although she had already passed away before he made the discovery. A representative for the state police stated unequivocally that the newlyweds had been married for fewer than thirty days at the time of the incident.
