Kathryn Hoedt, 23, died after witnesses say she fell 30 feet from the rope swing onto rocks along the shoreline at Folsom Lake, just 24 miles outside of Sacramento.
Friends who were with Hoedt helped carry her to a nearby boat ramp where park officials were located at the time.
An off-duty doctor performed CPR before an ambulance arrived to transport Hoedt to Sutter Roseville Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead.
“I can’t believe it’s real, you know, she was such a bright light,” her mother, Beth, told KCRA. “Today, I tried to get some work done, and it was really, really hard because I knew Katie’s never going to be calling me again, and it’s going to be just something that I’m never going to get used to.”
