He was ejected...so no seatbelt?  That's smart.  Cloudland isn't too bad is it?  I wish there was a little more depth with this article.  One of the things that attracted me to this group was the safety procedures we all follow on trails.  Accidents happen (I've had a few) but following common off-roading safety protocols may have improved this persons chances or even prevented the incident.
