McCALL (AP) - A 58-year-old southwest Idaho man has died at Brundage Mountain Resort in central Idaho near McCall in a mountain biking accident.
Authorities say Leo Nill of Nampa died Saturday.
Adams County Sheriff Ryan Zollman on Tuesday said the death has been ruled an accident.
Brundage Mountain spokeswoman Amy Whitney told the Idaho Statesman that Nill died on one of the ski resort's summer bicycle trails.
Mike Mauden was among a group biking with Nill. He said the forks on Nill's bike came apart when he jumped over a rock.
Brundage Mountain Resort has offered lift-served mountain biking in the summer since the early 1990s.
Whitney said it's the first mountain biking fatality at the resort.
