An ATV crash in Pisgah State Park on Saturday left two men with serious but non-life-threatening injuries and prompted a response from local rescuers and state conservation officers.
The incident occurred at about 11:30 a.m. Nov. 7 on John Hill Road in Winchester, according to New Hampshire Fish and Game. Investigators said a 39-year-old man from Dedham, Massachusetts, was driving an ATV with a passenger when the vehicle lost control and went over an embankment.
The operator was identified as Gregory Bodenair. He and the 59-year-old male passenger were both ejected and injured in the fall. Fish and Game said neither man was wearing a helmet.
A member of the riding party called for help, and Winchester Fire and EMS, along with a Fish and Game conservation officer, responded to the scene. Winchester EMS later transported both men to Cheshire Medical Center in Keene for additional care.
