Authorities say a 61-year-old man from Renton died in a fall while hiking in an area of Snoqualmie Pass Friday.

The man’s spouse called authorities Friday night to report that he hadn’t returned home from a hike at Chair Peak.

Search and Rescue responded Saturday morning with 70 volunteers to look for the man, who was found dead at the bottom of a cliff.

Authorities estimated that he fell about 100 feet.

His name hasn’t been released.

A King County Search and Rescue team hiked in to recover the body after a helicopter was unable to hoist the man out because of windy conditions.
