MOAB, Utah (AP) — A hiker died in a fall on a popular trail at Arches National Park in Utah.
The 68-year-old man from Paramus, New Jersey, fell about 30 feet (9 meters) Tuesday morning, park officials said in a statement.
Resuscitation efforts were unsuccessful. The man’s name wasn’t released.
The fall happened near an overlook on Devils Garden Trail, a popular loop in the busy park known for its 2,000 sandstone arches.
It’s the world’s highest concentration of natural arches.
