Searchers in southern Idaho are looking for the body of a Washington state man presumed drowned in the Snake River.

Twin Falls County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Lori Stewart told The Times-News (http://bit.ly/ODzs22) that 42-year-old Justice Kramer of Graham, Wash., was hiking along the river near Pillar Falls with his 18-year-old daughter and her friend Saturday evening when he slipped on some rocks and tumbled into the water.

Kramer is presumed to have drowned. Search and Rescue teams searched the area Saturday night and all day Sunday but did not find the body. Stewart said they would resume the search Monday.
