Event raises awareness of suicides
The event is held annually to raise awareness of suicide, help combat the stigma of mental illness and honor loved ones who have been lost.
So far this year, at least 18 people have committed suicide in America's national parks this year, from the swamplands of the Everglades and the beaches of Cape Cod to the rain-soaked forests of Olympic National Park and the bleak expanse of the Mojave Desert.
