What started as a day hike in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Saturday turned into tragedy for a Lakewood father and his nine year old son. Kent Sisson of the Chelan County Sheriff's Emergency Management Team says the father and son had been fishing at Lake Donald and decided to hike back using a different route around lake Eileen. Sisson says the father fell about 150 feet into some rocks but was able to instruct his son to hike out for help.
Sisson identified the victim as 40-year old William Berry.
