Xuan Wang, 56, died shortly after she was hit by the rock and ice, park officials said in a press release, KNTV reported.

Wang apparently slipped past a warning sign that the trail was closed due to dangerous winter conditions.

She “ignored the signs” and walked around a “clearly marked” gate, officials said.

Authorities are still investigating Wang’s death.
