We have an awesome privilege of being able to access the trails and fire roads from our campground. In order to keep that privilege we ask you to follow a few rules:

1. IN AND OUT OF CAMP ONLY!!! No riding around camp due to insurance policy. In and out means you leave for a ride and come back, not riding up the hill and back down.

2. Be respectful to other campers, warm up and go out as quietly as possible, 5 mph which means: DO NOT REV YOUR BIKE OR ATV IN CAMP! This is a campground, not a race/staging area.

3. 15 MPH though town, please be respectful, no revving in town, use a steady throttle.

4. When you are 2 miles out of town, ride normal. Signs are posted stating when you get to the end of the 15 MPH areas.
