This article has more info. He was obviously not clumsy kid. Captain of hockey team, skiing for years. Death was due to head injury. No helmet.

Even though he was not wearing a helmet, it is pretty scarily to think that somebody this athletic can die on this particular trail. It is not steep and it S turns through the wood, so you cannot go that fast to begin with. It is very disturbing incident.
