 | About 17 miles of forest service roads and rocky jeep trails can be found at this OHV area. These are just rocky roads, not motorcycle trails. You will not find any single track, but the scenery makes this a good choice for a slow ATV loop, or ATV camping trip. The area is not crowded and fishing, boating and primitive camping are allowed. |
