ZION NATIONAL PARK -- The National Park Service identifies the victim of a fatal fall inside Zion National Park as a 63-year-old woman from California.

The service says on April 27 Regine Milobedzki, of Upland, Calif., fell 1,000 feet from Scout Lookout, which is a popular viewpoint located along the West Rim Trail at the junction with the route to Angels Landing.

The woman remained unidentified for two days. On April 29, a local hotel reported a guest who had not checked out on time. After matching the driver's license photo of the guest with the victim, a positive identification was made. The name was withheld pending notification of the family.

The circumstances surrounding the cause of the fall remain under investigation.
