Authorities say a 19-year-old University of Utah student from Idaho Falls suffered a seizure before she fell from a chairlift at a Park City ski resort and died.

Summit County sheriff's Sgt. David Edmunds says Asha Davenport was riding the lift at the Canyons Resort with friends Sunday when she fell about 30 feet.

Medical personnel arrived within minutes, but the woman's injuries were too severe. She died at the scene around 12:30 p.m.

Canyons spokesman Steve Pastorino says the woman was on the High Meadow lift, which serves the mid-mountain area largely leading to beginners' slopes and ranges from roughly 15 to 50 feet off the ground.

Pastorino says it wasn't immediately clear if the woman and her friends had been using the lift's safety bar.
