Caleb Moore, a champion snowmobiler who died after injuries suffered at the Winter X Games, will be laid to rest soon in Wheeler, according to his grandfather, Charles Moore of Wheeler.
An announcement on the website of Peppers Family Funeral Home, said funeral services for Caleb Moore are scheduled for 2 p.m. Feb. 7 in First Baptist Church in Wheeler with the burial to follow at Wheeler Cemetery.
Moore, a four-time Winter X Games medal winner, was attempting a backflip in the freestyle event on Jan. 24 in Aspen when the skis on his 450-pound snowmobile caught the lip of the landing area, sending him flying over the handlebars. Moore landed face first into the snow with his snowmobile rolling over him.
Moore developed bleeding around his heart and was flown to a hospital in Grand Junction for surgery. The family later said that Moore also had a complication involving his brain.
Moore died Jan. 31. He was 25.
