SPOKANE VALLEY -- A man fell from a cliff in Spokane Valley's Dishman Hills area Monday afternoon and died.

Spokane Valley officials say a man and woman were hiking and "geocaching" in the Dishman Hills Natural Area.

According to police, the woman flagged down a passing Spokane Valley Police officer, and told him her husband had fallen down a 100-foot cliff.

Paramedics were called, but the man died at the scene.

Officers say they are treating the incident as an accident, but will conduct a full investigation.

"Geocaching" is an outdoor activity involving GPS navigation to locate containers of items hidden by other participants.
