MARSING, Idaho (AP) — Authorities say a 20-year-old man has died after falling more than 70 feet off a cliff in a southwest Idaho hiking area.

The Owyhee County Sheriff's Office told KBOI 2News that 20-year-old Coit Herrick II of Caldwell died after he slipped and fell in Jump Creek Falls on Saturday.

The Ada County Coroner's Office says Herrick died from severe blunt force trauma from the fall.

Owyhee County authorities have confirmed that an investigation is underway.

The man's death came before a 35-year-old man was seriously injured in a 50-foot fall at Shoshone Falls on Sunday. Twin Falls fire officials say the man fell from an overlook and was taken to a Boise hospital. His condition was not immediately known.
