"The River of No Return"

"The River of No Return" refers to a geographic and cultural concept, often associated with the Salmon River in Idaho, which suggests that once one ventures into its challenging wilderness, there is no easy way back. It symbolizes the idea of irreversible choice or commitment to a path in life, reflecting the struggles and dangers faced in pursuit of goals. This phrase is also the title of a classic 1954 film starring Marilyn Monroe, further popularizing its theme of facing challenges and the consequences of one’s decisions in an unforgiving environment.
