Title: ONF - North trail system. Totally awesome! THANK YOU !! Post by: BradG47 on December 04, 2006, 11:46:12 PM The North trail system with its 150+ miles of mapped trails is simply AWESOME. I've have ridden in a lot of places in the nation and can say that I've had a great time at ONF riding the trails there. It is really that good.
This marked trail system is the BEST thing that could happen to secure our long term use of the forest for ORV use. Please DO NOT COMPLAIN about the trail system! Make good suggestions that are realistic for the organization to implement but please do not don't complain to the forest service, we need to THANK them. I talked to one of the ONFA volunteers this week that was there educating the riders about a specific trail that cuts across the Longleaf pine section of the forest asking all of us to PLEASE stay on the single 8' wide trail that goes through that section. Interestingly the Longleaf pine is an endangered species of tree so the forest department is wanting to be careful about protecting that section. We can ride through there only as long as we keep the trail limited to 8 feet. PLEASE do this! The trail system is really nicely done already and will continue to get even better as long as we do what we can to help protect our rights to enjoy this resource and what will go a long way is to HELP the forest service and the ONFA in any way possible. The ONFA is working closely with the national forest service to improve and maintain the trails and we all should help out since they are doing this for us. I am sending my form to the ONFA tossing my entire family into the mix. If the ONFA has a large roster of volunteers that are actively involved working in conjunction with the forest service that will send a strong message to the government that our need for places to ride are a worthwhile investment and they'll support our needs for generations to come.

And does it connect to the dam that I hear about, the one we can ride at? Sorry, one more question. What is the name of the dam?
