Police are continuing to investigate the death of a 23-year-old woman who fell more than 20 metres off of a cliff at Rattlesnake Point Conservation Area in Milton on Sunday night.
It happened around 9 p.m. while the woman and her friends were walking along a trail in the park, located off of Appleby Line, Halton police say.
Firefighters, paramedics and police all attended the area, but emergency officials were unable to resuscitate the woman. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
The woman’s name has not yet been released.
This is not the first time someone has been injured at a Conservation Halton park in recent years.
A man was seriously injured following a rock climbing accident at Rattlesnake Point in April of this year and last May, a 35-year-old off-duty firefighter fell to her death while cycling in neighbouring Kelso Conservation Area.
Rattlesnake Point is closed Monday for the police investigation.
Officers say they do not suspect there is anything suspicious about the incident.
