Document Description
The OHMVR Division proposes to award grant funds to the Tahoe National Forest, American River Rancher District, for the Little Sugar OHV Trail Reroutes Project. The project involves rerouting four miles of single-track (motorcycle use) trail segments in the Sugar Pine OHV Area to reduce soil erosion, improve the riding experience, and enhance visitor safety. Seven trail segments proposed for reroutes are overly steep and heavily eroded. One reroute is proposed in order to move a trail off of existing roads. Two new routes are proposed to connect existing loops. A total of nine miles of new trail would be constructed. All new routes would be constructed with sustainable grades. Trail work would be performed using a small single-track trail dozer.
