    Default Death in Delaware Water Gap over the weekend?

    I was coming back from an overnight trip in DWG on Sunday (Oct.21) and someone had told me that a guy had 'fallen' off the mountain? There is a really steep range on the right side of 80 on Mt.Tamney and that is supposedly where this guy was. I seen atleast 1 state police helicopter, 3-4 ambulances, a fire truck, 3-4 state police vehicles and 3-4 ranger vehicles.

    I searched the web but didn't come up with anything. Anyone know what happened?

    Hopefully it was a training secession.

    Definitely didn't look like a training session, cop cars/rangers were whizzing up and down Rt.80. I doubt they would do that for training, but who knows.

    Hopefully you are right though and no one was hurt.
