A second ATV, driven by 64-year-old Stephen Nixon of Zimmerman, was heading east on the trail. Authorities say Nixon was driving slow on the trail due to dusty conditions, when he drove into the back of Reed's ATV, pushing it over the edge causing it rolled over on top of Reed.
He was taken to St. Gabriel's Hospital with unknown injuries. Nixon was not hurt.
