Becker County to host 70-mile ATV trail (2005-08-23)

Becker County has been selected to host a new 70-mile all-terrain vehicle/off-highway motorcycle (ATV/OHM) trail.

Becker was one of several counties that submitted proposals in response to a Department of Natural Resources (DNR) request for help in siting a new ATV/OHM trail pursuant to a 2003 Legislative directive. The new trail will be planned, designed and constructed on a mix of state and county-administered forest lands located in north and south Round Lake Townships in north-central Becker County. The trail should be completed and ready to ride by summer 2007.

The Becker County ATV/OHM trail system will provide a mix of easy, intermediate and more difficult trails for riders of various skill levels. Four rest areas with parking, vehicle off-loading ramps, rest rooms and picnic facilities are planned for various locations along the trail. This trail system will be located approximately 20 miles from Park Rapids, 25 miles from Detroit Lakes and about 250 miles from the Twin Cities metro area. A myriad of public and private campgrounds and resorts are located within a half-hour drive.

Counties play an important role in providing for off-highway vehicle recreation according to Ron Potter, the DNR's Off-Highway Vehicle Program supervisor.

He believes this ATV/OHM trail project provides "an excellent opportunity for DNR and county land managers to work together to provide a much needed recreational riding opportunity for Minnesota's fast-growing population of ATV and motorcycle trail riders."

Communities located along the trail are also expected to benefit from increased tourism and added local economic activity. For more information or for a copy of the Becker County trail proposal, contact Tim Browning at (218) 755-3969 or by e-mail at tim.browning@dnr.state.mn.us.

 Actually no it's not, but I'm happy that the state is finally making some trails. I live about 34 miles West of Minneapolis and about 13 miles West of Channhassen where the doppler radar is for the Metro area. I think the closet area that is a riding area for atvs is about an hour from me unless you count my yard or the swamp behind my house which I did ride in last weekend to set up my weather station(had to stand on the front rack to bolt one of the instrument on the pole).:thumb2:
