The incident happened about 6:10 p.m. on Park County Road 62 on the Grant side of the pass, said Sgt. Troy Kessler, a State Patrol spokesman.
The motorcyclist, identified as Adam Lamb, 44, of Colorado Springs, was southbound on County Road 62 while riding a 2016 KTM when he hit the moose in the roadway, Kessler said.
