A man in his 20s slipped and fell about 35 feet to his death from a trail in Eaton Canyon Park in the Pasadena foothills.
Erwin Molina was hiking a popular waterfall trail with three companions around 6:30 p.m. Sunday when he lost his footing and fell to the rocky canyon bottom, said Pasadena Fire Department spokeswoman Lisa Derderian.
He was taken to a hospital with critical injuries and died a short time later, she said.
An L.A. County coroner's official said Molina's age and residence had not been confirmed.
It was the first fatality this year at the heavily used trail, Derderian said.
