The Anchorage Police Department said on Thursday that foul play is not suspected in the death of a man whose body was found last week near the Thunderbird Falls trailhead.
Police identified the man as 32-year-old David C. Gauvreau and said next-of-kin have been notified.
“While the exact cause of death is still under investigation, it is not believed to be criminal in nature,” police wrote in a statement.
Gauvreau’s body was found March 6 by a group of hikers on the trail. Police initially said the death was considered suspicious in nature.
