Interesting incident which happened on the Stevens Trail near Colfax CA, 45 minutes NE of Sacramento in Northern California. Colfax is a small historic gold mining town, pop. 2000, on I-80.  I have hiked the Stevens Trail many times. It is a multi use trail, but I rarely see mountain bikers there due to the steep drop offs into the American River.  http://www.kcra.com/news/local-news/news-sierra/Colfax-mountain-lion-killed-by-Dept-of-Fish-and-Wildlife/-/12970852/18585242/-/format/rsss_2.0/-/4j3gpfz/-/index.html
