Protecting Utah's
ATV Trails
By following a few simply guidelines
you can help protect this recreational opportunity for the future.
Protect The Environment. Don't
leave trash or other debris. If you see trash please pick it up.
Do your research on the area you plan
to ride. One day a trail may be open the next closed.
ALWAYS stay on the improved trail.
ATVers love a good hill climb. But do it in areas where this
activity is permitted. The making of new trails is completely illegal.
Obey all laws when riding on these
trails. And of course be courteous to others on the trail. Most
trails are open to hikers, mountain bikers, and horses. When you see
others on these trails, unless there is enough room, pull off and
let them go by.
Always wear the proper safety gear
when riding. If you're under 18 years of age, helmets are required
by law. If older, why tempt the law of averages.
If you discover an area your not quit
sure you can ride, or the markers are unclear. Contact your local
land manager of your findings so they can be taken care off. Don't
just assume because you have been riding on that trail that it's ok
to proceed.
This is a very small list of things
you can do to help protect the use of ATV's. If you would like to
