It's open-ended because it's an area that I don't know much about. When I thought about how a person could end up dead from camping, the first thing I imagined was twisting an ankle after a stumble a steep hill, and not being able to get back to civilization. Add more trouble, and I imagine a fall down a steep hill, maybe with a concussion. (Yes, I have issues about falling.) However, I don't know if those are the biggest risks.
