This family went out for hike and never came back...

A well-prepared couple, their child, and the family dog were all found dead on the trail after going missing on a hike near Yosemite Natn'l Park. Preliminary autopsies have failed to pinpoint a cause of death. No suicide note, no blunt force trauma, no gunshot or stab wounds, no animal bites or other marks on the bodies. What happened to these people

I'd have to see the placement of the bodies. Distance between parents, child, dog. Huddled together? Are there any struggle marks in the dirt?

I read about this yesterday. Sounds like they're awaiting a toxicology report. Seems crazy that all including the dog just dropped dead and only a little more than a mile from their campsite if I'm not mistaken.

Lightning strike, EMP, Alien Landing site?

It is weird that all would be taken out so close. Victim location important. Seems like toxic algae would kick in at different times for different victims. Toxic Gas cloud perhaps more explains a close proximity of victims, especially if one went down and the other tried to help, not understanding full danger of threat at hand.

My money is on gasses, hopefully from impending yellowstone park explosion, which would effectively end all covid talk once and for all by effectively doming us all.

I think they looked into that thinking that a known or unlisted mine might have released toxic gas.

I will be upset if it just a mine shaft. I await the big one.

Are you by chance one of those guys who stand outside yelling at the sky "Bring it!"?
