Body Of Deceased Man Found In Wind River

The body of a deceased man was found in the Wind River this past weekend.  According to the Skamania County Sheriff’s Office, the body was located on Saturday, about 1,000 feet downriver from Shipherd Falls outside of Carson, but could not be accessed until Sunday due to hazardous conditions.  Volunteers with specialized swift water training from Skamania County Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue, along with a volunteer from the Wet Planet kayaking guide service, successfully recovered the body, which was transported to the Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office for an autopsy.  The Sheriff’s Office says although the incident is still under investigation, the cause of death appears accidental.  Further details of the man’s identity have been withheld pending next of kin notification.
