Mountain Biker Hurt Near Phil's Trail
Saturday, May 19th 2012 08:17am
On May 18, 2012 at about 2:10 p.m., 911 dispatch received a report of
an injured mountain bike rider on the “Whoops” mountain bike trail,
south of Skyliners Road. Deputies from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s
Office, personnel from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office Search
and Rescue (SAR) unit and US Forest Service personnel responded to the
scene.
The initial investigation revealed that Mr. Sanders was riding down
the “Whoops” trail when he failed to negotiate a turn and his mountain
bike left the trail, launching him about 15 feet into the air before
striking a tree. He was assessed and stabilized at the scene by SAR
personnel and transported via ATV Ambu-sled litter approximately 1
mile to Skyliners Road. He was then transported via Air Link to Saint
Charles Medical Center-Bend with serious injuries. Skyliners Road was
closed for about 30 minutes.
