Keep speed down to reduce dust and trail damage that can
also hurt the environment. Some dust is inevitable on many
trails, but minimize it by keeping speeds down and controlling
wheel spin.
Be responsible for your actions and those of your
passengers. The backcountry provides a wonderful
environment and many challenges. Damaging the trail only
creates ammo for those who would like to close all
backcounty trails to motorized vehicle traffic.
Stay on designated trails. There are plenty of authorized
trails, We don’t need to create illegal ones, or damage those
that are still open. And the most important factor is to pay
attention to the trail and your surroundings while behind the
wheel. Most accidents are caused by lack of attention by the
driver.
