Very sad. So sorry for his friends and families loss. Hope the other occupant recovers. A good reminder to always be as careful as we can be. There’s not much else to say.
From the post:
We’re addressing this now before rumors start:
Two days ago, heartbreak struck when a vehicle traveling with us on the Lost River Expedition went over the edge in the mountains near Gunnison, Colorado. Without going into details, both Travis and Harley were ejected prior to the Land Cruiser coming to rest more than 600 feet below the road. We raced down a lower path and ran up the mountain to find our friends. Very tragically, Travis did not make it. Harley had head trauma, a shattered lower leg, and a compressed lung. DelRey Romero administered first aid and gave him oxygen until we were able to get him off the mountainside. Harley is in rough shape, but we’re so happy to report that he’s stable and awake at the hospital in Grand Junction, and will hopefully be flying back home to Washington tomorrow.
Feel free to share these pictures—as a reminder that tragedy can strike even when you’re having fun, and to please, please always be careful.
