BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) A 60-year-old Park County man has died after falling more than 200 feet off a cliff in the Crazy Mountains.

Sheriff Allan Lutes says the man was an outfitter and was hunting at the time of the accident, at about 11 a.m. Saturday.

Search and rescue volunteers from Clyde Park and Wilsall hiked into the area with a horse and mule and met with the hunters who reported the fall. The hunters gave GPS coordinates to guide searchers.

The man's body was found about 8 p.m. Saturday. His name hasn't been released.
