Fisherman Dies In Yosemite

Yosemite, CA — A fisherman from Midpines was found dead in Yosemite National Park Tuesday morning.

62-year-old Keith Robinson set out for the area known as Windy Point along Hwy 140 Monday evening, and was reported missing Tuesday morning when he failed to return home.

Park Ranger Kari Cobb says officials located his vehicle in a pull-out area along Hwy 140 and found his body as they walked down towards the river.

Access to the river from the pull-out consists of rocky terrain, and it was determined that he died from injuries suffered from a fall.
