Welcome to the Okanogan–Wenatchee National Forest and some of the best trail riding in the country

This is a multiple use trail system, used by a variety of recreationists who enjoy the outdoors—motorcyclists, mountain bikers, hikers, and horsemen. Regardless of the mode of transportation used to enjoy this area, visitors come to experience the forest and high country of the Northwest in their own way. Please be courteous and understanding towards all other trail users, and learn about the regulations and closures that affect this area. This brochure is designed to help maximize your enjoyment of this multiple use trail system. Please read and follow the guidelines regarding trail etiquette and safety to ensure the best experience possible.

Trail Etiquettew Operate motorcycles and bicycles at a safe

speed, maintaining a stopping distance of 1/3 your sight distance at all times.

wStay on the trails. Short-cutting switchbacks or traveling off trail kills vegetation and causes erosion and scars to the landscape.

wObserve and obey all posted signs, warnings, and seasonal closures to ensure future use.

wMotorcycles and mountain bikes yield to oncoming traffic, pull off on the downhill side of the trail and kill your engine. Take off your helmet and communicate with horseriders on how best to pass each other.

w Pass horses that have pulled off the trail only when the lead rider gives you the signal to do so.

w Motorcycles and mountain bikes slow down when approaching or overtaking hikers, say Hi and signal how many of your group are to follow.

w Keep your forest clean. Pack out all garbage.

Trail Safetyw There are elements of risk that common sense

and personal awareness can help reduce. Know your abilities and ride appropriately.

w Wear a helmet, eye protection, and other protective gear when riding.

w Never ride alone. Leave an itinerary with family or friends.

w Watch for changing conditions. Be prepared for the unexpected — carry first aid kit, emergency repair equipment, food/water, warm clothing.

w Water from streams and lakes must be treated or boiled before drinking.

w Be careful with fire and make sure campfires are out and cold to the touch.
