 * Delozier, Dave. "Bicyclists Chose Right Trail to save Dogs in Wilderness." The Denver Post.11 Sept. 2011. Print. **

Scott Erickson a local biker that exemplifies him self by riding Skeleton trail, is very surprised when he finds two very starved dogs in his path.These two dogs had been in the skeleton trail for 20 days ,starved ,hurt ,dehydrated, and on the verge of dying. Suddenly Scott Erickson stumbles upon them and tries to help them but they are unable to walk. Eventually two other bikers ride up one gives the dogs food but the other has nothing for them so he offered to help Erickson carry the dogs witch resulted in failure and the dogs had to walk.It was a slow process and the dogs had to limp and often had to take brakes.Finely Erickson reaches the trail head and gets the dogs to a veterinarian, he explains that the dogs were chipped and had a owner of witch he brought them two right away.
