This ATV trail begins at the top ridge and heads you down with plenty of openings in the forest to see breathtaking views all around. There are some grassy clearings and then drops becoming more difficult to find. Look for wildlife like elk and deer.
Before heading out to the ATV trail, make sure you do a complete systems check on your vehicle. This is a very important job that could determine whether you have a good time or a bad time. Check the brakes, oil, and don't forget the tires.
Make sure you never ride double or side by side out on the ATV trail. Tell someone where you are going and when you will be coming back. A cell phone will be a good reassurance that help is just a phone call away. Just remember that it may not always work at the higher elevations.
Wear the appropriate gear for the ultimate safety. A helmet, goggles, gloves and a good pair of boots will be good. They make great suits just for ATVing that you might want to consider.
So be smart and play smart and the result will be nothing but fun.
