“Our last damn photo together,” Sara Bragante wrote alongside the photo of their hike on the Altar Knotto trail. «You will always be with me, my little bear,» she wrote tenderly. Her boyfriend had regularly posted shirtless photos on Instagram, where he also expressed his love for his girlfriend who watched him fall to his death, the New York Post also reported.

Initial reports said the victim was trying to retrieve his girlfriend’s phone, but police later clarified to local media that it was Andrea Mazzetto’s own cell phone that fell. The deceased will be buried on Wednesday, local media said.
