A tragic event occurred at Palouse Falls State Park. According to reports, Cade Prophet, a 25-year-old hiker, was taking a selfie with his girlfriend near the top of a waterfall when he slipped and fell into the Palouse River. Despite efforts to rescue him, the river’s strong current carried him away, and his body was later found in a challenging location.
