A 63-year-old woman died Wednesday when she fell off a cliff at Hocking Hills State Park.

Hocking County Coroner's Office Chief Investigator Seth Riddlebarger tells WOSU that Nancy Baker of Davenport, Iowa, was hiking with her husband at Cantwell Cliffs when she tripped, slid off a steep incline and went over the cliff's edge around 2:30 p.m.

Ohio Department of Natural Resources officers are investigating.
