Con M. McClure, 54, of Yacolt remained in critical condition Saturday night after crashing his all-terrain vehicle on Friday night.
The accident, at 21320 N.E. Dole Valley Road, was reported shortly before 8 p.m. It happened on the long driveway of the home about two miles north of Larch Corrections Center, said Chief Ben Peeler with North Country Emergency Medical Services.
“The un-helmeted operator of a 1990 Polaris Sportsman quad motorcycle was going down a steep private drive when he lost control of the vehicle and rolled it off the drive,” said Clark County sheriff’s Sgt. Bill Roberts. “When a nearby witness heard the quad engine racing, he went to investigate and found the quad on top of the unconscious operator. It appeared the operator struck his head on a rock.”
A LifeFlight helicopter took McClure to PeaceHealth Southwest Washington Medical Center.
McClure had been “hosting a family celebration at the time of the collision,” a sheriff’s bulletin said.
