A Miami University professor died Friday after officials say he fell while hiking a mountain in Alaska.
The National Park Service (NPS) says 52-year-old David Shrider stopped to take a break while hiking with five friends and family members on Donoho Peak in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve near Kennecott.
A family member in the group told officials that Shrider asked for help before he rolled about 150 feet down a slope. When a member of the group found him, the NPS says he was dead, and his son then called 911.
