A hiker in Alaska has died after falling to his death from a popular hiking trail. William Milks, 64, was hiking in a group along the challenging Salmon Creek route in Juneau when witnesses say he tripped and fell over 100ft (30m).
Emergency responders rappelled down to Milks' position but were unable to save him. Local fire chief Rich Etheridge told the Juneau Empire: "They started patient care, and then he went into cardiac arrest while we were on the scene."
