Gardnerville Ranchos Gravel Pits
Featured Trail Near Gardnerville, NV!We recently received an e-mail from a few locals that the area is still being used by riders of all types (4x4, dirt bikes, side by sides, etc). We have also received correspondence from the past that the area is completely off limits and no longer open to offroad use.
Due to this conflicting information, we did a bit of research and came across the 2008 and 2014 Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest MVUM maps that show there are some designated Forest Service roads (41676, 41676A, 41676B and 41677) that go around the gravel pit and are open year-round to all vehicle types.
In addition, according to the 2017 Douglas County Land Use Plan, the area surrounding the gravel pit is earmarked for eventual urban development (see pages 55-57).
In summary, some sections are still open but likely not for very long, so ride at your own risk. Other areas that are nearby and better suited for riding include China Springs, Mount Seigel, Old Sheep Ranch and Johnson Lane.
