A Utah man hiking with the young son of his fiancee fell to his death near Bridal Veil Falls in Provo Canyon, leaving the 9-year-old boy to climb down the mountain by himself, authorities said.
The boys mother called for help, saying she could see her son from below, crying and alone, according to a press release from the Utah County Sheriffs Office on Sunday.
Volunteer search and rescuers and a Department of Public Safety helicopter crew responded Saturday evening. They found the body of Adrian Vanderklis, 40, of Roosevelt at an elevation of about 5,800 feet on a nearly vertical slope as night fell, and determined that he apparently died immediately as a result of his injuries.
His body was recovered on Sunday and was taken to a medical examiners office for an autopsy, the release said.
The boy was with him but did not actually see Mr. Vanderklis fall, the sheriffs office said.
