Couple killed in motorcycle crash in Big Thompson Canyon
The Larimer County Coroner’s Office says a husband and wife riding a motorcycle were killed in a crash near the mouth of the Big Thompson Canyon on Sunday.
Authorities say Joshua and Sherri Zander of Fort Collins collided head on with a vehicle on U.S. Highway 34 at around 5 p.m.
The crash closed down the highway to Rocky Mountain National Park for several hours.
The Loveland Reporter-Herald says the park reported heavy traffic over the weekend and many drivers had to use the alternate route of U.S. 36 to return home.
