Whoa. Thats terrible news.

 

[Gravy]

Well that's terrible, I only met him a couple times once at a Lucas off-road short course race when his daughter was competing and once at SEMA he was a genuinely nice guy.

"On January 2, 2023 at approximately 2:00 p.m., the Wasatch County 911 Center received a call reporting a snowmobile accident in the Mill Hollow area.

Search and Rescue, along with law enforcement from Wasatch County Sheriff’s Office, Utah State Parks and the U.S. Forest Service responded.

The driver, Kenneth Block, 55-year-old male out of Park City, Utah, was riding a snowmobile on a steep slope when the snowmobile upended, landing on top of him. He was pronounced deceased at the scene from injuries sustained in the accident.

Mr. Block was riding with a group but was alone when the accident occurred.

The State Medical Examiner’s Office will determine the official cause of death.

We are saddened to hear of the loss of Kenneth and our hearts are with his family and friends so deeply affected.

We thank all of our first responders for their continued service."

Sad for his family but maybe a little glad-ish that he died doing something crazy (like he always did) instead of from pancreatic cancer or some nonsense.

 

[Cody]

Super sad. I guess he was able to live an enviable life and go out doing what he loved.

Been following him and his career for a LONG time. This is really sad but as Nate said he was doing something he loved. My heart goes out to his family.

[glockman]

Sad day for sure.
My grandfather said, don't think of my death as a tragedy, rather think of my life as a triumph. I think that applies with Ken.

Sad day for sure.
My grandfather said, don't think of my death as a tragedy, rather think of my life as a triumph. I think that applies with Ken.

Love this
