Preventing Deaths In Hocking Hills

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources is taking steps to prevent more deaths from falls in the Hocking Hills area. The department says it will have more officers on the trails this weekend to remind state park and state forest visitors about outdoor safety and to cite rule breakers. New signs will also go up next week with safety rules, after three people died in falls over the past month.
