Authorities say a hiker in the Holy Cross Wilderness area has found what appears to be the top half of a human skull.

The Vail Daily reports the hiker notified the U.S. Forest Service after finding the remains Thursday, and the agency notified Eagle County sheriff’s officials.

Investigators are trying to determine whether it might belong to someone who was reported missing in that area.
