Hiker dies in 106 heat - Authorities identify hiker who died yesterday at Santa Teresa County Park

The details on the passing of hiker Linda Fradkin, 57, of San Mateo, who died yesterday at Santa Theresa County Park have been released.

Linda apparently was an avid hiker and had been on matchmaking hike, with a group from Table for Six Adventures and was reportedly in excellent physical shape.
On Monday the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office confirmed the body was of a woman named Linda Fradkin, 57, of San Mateo and Table for Six said she was a member of its group.
It took sheriff's deputies about 45 minutes of off-road driving and hiking to get to where the woman was found. She was fully clothed when deputies found her and there were no apparent signs of trauma, police said.
It was about 106 degrees Sunday and a heat advisory was in effect so the temperature might have been a factor in her death, investigators said.
