United States Forest Service

Many National Forests provide excellent OHV riding opportunities. For this reason, we have provided a list of U.S. Forest Service employees in charge of trails or resource management in each National Forest in your state. It's a good idea to familiarize yourself with these individuals, as they can be a great resource for information. It is especially important right now, since the Forest Service is in the process of implementing its November 2005 Travel Management Rule which requires each National Forest to designate those roads, trails, and areas that are open to motor vehicle use. Once this designation process is complete and a Motor Vehicle Use Map is published, no OHV use will be allowed off of designated routes. Therefore it is extremely important for the public to be engaged in this process.
