Default Death at Walden

The Missoulian newspaper today had the obituary of a 32 year old guy who was from here but lived in Littleton CO. Says he died on Sunday, a motorcycle accident at Walden sand dunes. Another very sad story, to go so young. Everybody ride safe out there.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

yes indeed very truly sad. Well at least he went doing something he loved.

I get up and read the obituary's every morning in the paper. The day I see mine in the paper. I don't have to worry about going to work. WOOHOOOOO. J/K

I arrived just after the accident but it was a collision between him (on a dirt bike) and
a modified vehicle (nice looking coup style body on a tuck frame with a V8 engine).

The Walden dunes are vary small (I think 5 square miles) and during a holiday weekend
they are vary crowed with people. From what I heard it was just an accident where
they didn’t see each other until it was too late.

Unfortunately, Walden is a zoo on holiday weekends. No rules and too many people in only 800 acres of dunes. Sad to hear about these things there. We don't need any more bad press.
