Okay- I found a better map.

Yup. Right there. Damn. I was riding up Beech grove (mentioned in the article) but this happened a little later in the day. Probably missed the rescue squads by an hour or two.

edit- better view of the google map:

Zoom in and you can see big levels 4x4 trail. I used to do a lot of mountainbiking there. It runs adjacent to St. Mary's so you can drive/ride on it. Mostly I ride on the parkway. St. Mary's swimming hole nearby. The Mt. Carmel church mentioned in the yahoo article is in Steeles Tavern. My dad is buried there. Pretty rugged where it crashed.
