A student attending the University of Georgia fell 90 feet to her death last week on Michael Schmidther second climb at the Cherokee Rock Village in Alabama.

According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Yutong "Faye" Zhang, 18, died Saturday from falling 90 feet while climbing in the Cherokee Rock Village around noon.

Paul McDonald, the county coroner investigating her death, told the paper that emergency responders were notified around 12 p.m., right after the fall. They quickly responded and worked on Zhang. However, attempts to revive her were unsuccessful.

According to Climbing magazine, the fall is a popular climbing route at Cherokee Rock Village with a steep overhang. People with her at the climb believe the rope was in a position so that it came unclipped when it had tension from her weight.

Zhang was a member of the University of Georgia's Foundation Fellowship, which is the school's top academic scholarship, according to AL.com.

Zhang was also a part of Active Climbing, an indoor rock climbing gym near UGA, says WSB. Her father, Pingchuan Zhang, explained that this was only Zhang's second time climbing outside.

Cherokee County is a top rock climbing destination with large rocks and a mountainous terrain for climbers to enjoy.
