There are NO trails there yet. The trail to Parish is open and ends at Happy Valley Inn. Please note, the Yamaha Trail is still closed due to logging. Sorry this trail was not available this riding season. If you have signed up to do trail work, please call the trail boss for whatever day of the week you are interested in. It is up to you to contact them. They need all the help they can get. There is a chalk board hanging in the pavilion, please check it for work detail locations. It will list what trails are being worked on that day. If there is a trail marked closed and it has ribbon, signs, gates or any other such things, then the trail is closed. Do Not go around. It may be closed do to a hazard, issue with a landowner, hunting (if there is at the time) or many other things. We have trails that open and close at different times throughout the riding season. It is not possible to mark these on the maps because they change so much. Check the website, facebook or call a Trail Boss if you have any questions about a certain trail. There is lots of work to do!

The ATV club has a trail patrol set up and headed by Brad Hilton, Mike Ortman and Wayne Slate. There will be check points set up throughout the trail system. The members of the patrol will have florescent vests and marked ATVs. If you happen to come upon a check point, be sure to slow, as they will be checking for club registration stickers. If you don't have your sticker on your machine, they will stop you and you will be questioned. No one is allowed to ride the trails unless they are a member of the club. If you have any questions give Brad or Mike a call, they will be happy to assist you. The trail patrol has caught several people on the trails without memberships. Also, some that were in areas they shouldn't be. Make sure you have a membership and you stay on the trails. No excuses! Stay on the trails or stay home!
