HUNTER - A 32-year-old Georgia man fell to his death while hiking at Kaaterskill Falls Saturday.

The New York State Police at Catskill reported that Jeremy W. Mullins, 32, of Savannah, Ga., succumbed to injuries after he slipped and fell from a trail adjacent to the Kaaterskill Falls in the town of Hunter.

Mullins fell approximately 60 feet, striking the rocks below the trail.


He had been hiking with one other person.

Police said the two people were on their way down from the falls, traversing a trail that was only approximately 12 inches wide, when Mullins slipped on loose shale and mud and fell from the trail.

An autopsy performed Sunday by pathologist Dr. Bernard Ng at St. Peter's Hospital in Albany determined the cause of death to be multiple trauma due to the fall.

State Police at Catskill could not provide any additional information Sunday night.
