All trails/roads used by the Jamboree are understood to be two-way. Even on narrow trails, you may meet someone coming on an ATV/UTV from the opposite direction. Watch carefully for oncoming traffic on all roads and trails. Remember the Three K’s – Kind, Kourteous & Kareful.
The Jamboree rides will provide direct contact with the elements and place physical demands on both participants and machines. Those with medical conditions or certain other physical limitations should carefully consider those demands. Each participant must be responsible for his/her own health and well-being along the trail. We will never be more than a few hours from the nearest town, but medical assistance is not always available in smaller towns. If you have medical or physical limitations, but decide to go anyway, please make your guide aware of your condition.
We emphasize that the ATV trails are not intended for high-speed riding but rather for conservative, safe riding. It is necessary that all participants stay with the group, always remaining behind the front guide, for the safety and peace of mind of the entire group. ATVs/UTVs must be in good mechanical conditions, tuned up and properly jetted for high altitude endurance rides.
Also, please note that unless otherwise stated in the ride description, you will need to provide your own lunch while on the ride. Pam’s Country Kitchen will be at registration to sell you a lunch if you want
-
Beginner: These rides are almost wholly on dirt roads in the Paiute system. Some of the beginner rides may include short moderately steep sections or switchbacks.
Intermediate: Intermediate rides generally include some road and ATV trail portions with some steep, rough or challenging trails. A ride may also be intermediate in nature due to its length.
Advanced: Advanced rides will generally include portions that are steep, rough, and otherwise difficult to maneuver. In some cases, rides are listed as advanced because of the length of the ride.
-
The Wednesday Poker run and all guided rides are designed to allow you to ride at your own pace. While we do have guides the trail is well marked with colored disks on the ground at each turn. You will find several of these colored disks leading you in the direction you need to go. So there is no need to ‘keep up’ with riders ahead. If riders behind you are overtaking, let them. You just need to follow the colored disks. Take your time, avoid eating dust. Get the photos you want. Just know that eventually someone will be coming along to remove the disks.
Friday is Event Day at the City Park and Open Riding Day
All Guided Rides will be Offered on Thursday and Saturday
