The Santa Clara County medical examiner's office has identified a 57-year-old San Mateo woman as the hiker who was found dead on a trail in Santa Teresa County Park in Santa Clara County Sunday.

Linda Fradkin's body was discovered by a mountain biker in the upper end of the park, near an old radio tower around 6:30 p.m., according to Sgt. Rick Sung.

The cause of her death has not been determined pending a toxicology report, but a preliminary autopsy report indicated there were no signs of trauma or foul play to Fradkin's body.
