This is very sad to hear!! I have been wanting to go mtn biking near Mount Herman. Might be a while before I consider it after this news.

My heart goes out to the friends and family of Tim Watkins. I hope the person that shot him is found and dealt with appropriately.

According to this article shot several times. Unless he was riding with a bear suit on most likely not an accident.
