Investigation Summary
At approximately 8:30 a.m. on November 24, 2006, Employee #1 was repairing a logging road. He had positioned his backhoe on the road and was using the bucket to work on the drainage ditch on the inside of the road. The road had water running over it and the ground was saturated from earlier rain. The ground under the backhoe gave way and started a landslide. The backhoe slid with the landslide and ended up in a creek bed approximately 250 ft below. Employee #1 either jumped or was ejected from the backhoe. He was found dead in the creek bed.
