Investigation Summary
On August 16, 1999, Employee #1 was operating a utility vehicle called a Gator and cleaning ashes out of fire pits at a campground. He drove the Gator up to the fire pit, got out, and shoveled the ashes into the back of the Gator. After finishing, he climbed back into the Gator and drove to the next fire pit. As he went to the next fire pit, he went around a parked camper and ran into an extended fifth wheel hitch. His upper torso struck the wheel hitch knocking him back. The impact of the collision caused damage to his thoracic cavity and fractured his spinal column. He died from his injuries received in the accident. The extended hitch was difficult to detect because of the background of trees and shade blending it.
