An autopsy is planned to learn more about his death.Rita Wechter hikes in Colorado and says the trails in the Linville Gorge rival some out west."I read on the signpost that this area has some of the highest rates of search and rescues in the country," Wechter said. "So, a lot of people come up here and get lost, dehydrated, lose the trail."An autopsy will likely be done to determine the cause of death, the U.S. Forest Service said.</div></body>
