Oregon Hiker Falls To Her Death At Eagle Creek Trail
KGW News has just reported that 23-year old Rhonda Casto fell down a 100 foot embankment at Eagle River Trail and died on Monday evening. Casto, who was from Portland, was hiking in the trail located west of Cascade Locks with another man when she is believed to have slipped on the wet trailway that had recently had sleet and hail activity. Police are still investigating the incident. I’ll let readers know more when it comes available.
This is the second person who has died on the trail in the last 30 days. Consider hiking another trail this weekend until the weather improves the conditions on the Eagle River Trail. We don’t want to see anyone else get hurt.
