A man was taking photos with his wife on the summit of a scenic New Hampshire mountaintop when he fell and tumbled to his death, state officials say.
The husband and wife were hiking in Crawford Notch State Park on Saturday, Dec. 10 and made their way to the top of Mt. Willard — a popular destination in the park offering panoramic views of the surrounding forest — around 10:30 a.m.
While they were snapping pictures to commemorate the moment, the wife heard a yell and turned to see her husband slip off a cliff jutting 800 feet above the ground below, officials said.
