As a motivation to get your OHV sticker, the sticker sales are used to perform trail maintenance and repair in the BLM and now including Forest Service roads. The list of roads required to have a sticker is increasing each year.
Optional is to then drive in the Banks, Penrose Common etc. as time and motivation permits.
Remember to bring a GMRS radio (we use channel 15-0), recovery gear, coffee and snack or lunch.
