New Hampshire Fish and Game Department Conservation
Officers have recovered the body of a Manchester man who fell to his
death from Cathedral Ledge in North Conway in an apparent suicide.
Steven J. Clark, of Manchester, New Hampshire, age 52, was reported last
seen by his wife about 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 26. She reported
him missing to the Manchester Police Department on Sunday afternoon.
At approximately 4:30 p.m. on Monday, September 28, two climbers walking
along the base of Cathedral Ledge in North Conway discovered Clark's
body. They immediately hiked back down the trail and called for help,
initiating the emergency response. Clark's vehicle was located in the
parking area at the top of Cathedral Ledge, and his body was found on
the ground at the base of the 600-foot cliff, at a point below the
fenced viewing area.
New Hampshire Fish and Game Conservation Officers were assisted in the
recovery by the North Conway Fire Department, North Conway Ambulance,
Conway Police Department, Bartlett Police Department, and the Mountain
