(KSL News) A man is in stable condition tonight after falling nearly 100 feet while rock climbing in southern Utah.

Authorities say the man had been climbing without a harness this afternoon with three other friends. They were in an area near Old Highway 91.

After the man fell from a cliff, another climber hiked about three miles out to the highway and called 911.

Searchers found the man and flew him to a hospital in Las Vegas.
