INFORMATION ABOUT THE MAP
Miles – There are just over 1,000 miles of featured
OHV (off-highway vehicle) roads and trails shown on the
map. For these routes, information has been provided
concerning recommended vehicle type, difficulty and
mileage between intersections. In addition, there are about
85 miles of single-track trails recommended for motorcycle
use only. Hundreds of miles of other routes are shown on
the map that are open to OHV travel, but are not part of the
featured trail system.
This map was jointly prepared and printed by Emery
County and Utah State Parks and Recreation. The
U.S.D.A. Forest Service and U.S.D.I. Bureau of Land
Management were not parties to this endeavor.
Other OHV maps are available for portions of the
area covered by this map and may offer more specific
information regarding certain routes. These maps
include: Arapeen OHV Trail System, produced by the
Forest Service; and the San Rafael Motorized Route
Designations, produced by the BLM, Emery County and
Utah State Parks and Recreation.
Elevations – Elevations range from about 4,000 feet in
Green River to nearly 11,000 feet on the top of the Manti
Mountains. Castle Valley communities have elevations
ranging from around 5,500 to 6,500 feet. Swasey Cabin in
the middle of the San Rafael Swell is about 7,200 feet.

Riding Season - Except for heavy snow years, much of
the area can be ridden year-round. The exception is the
Manti Mountains, which are only fully accessible from late
spring until late fall.
Omissions – There are some well-known OHV routes
not featured on this map because they are in sensitive
areas and are being overused. Riders are encouraged
to visit other parts of the map area to lessen impacts to
these routes and avoid the prospect of closure by the
administering federal agency.
