Trail Maps and Reports
In conjunction with our neighboring ATV clubs we are working on a regional trail map with accurate GPS readings. Click on the links below for maps & info. currently available. Also, ATV Maine is currently working on an updated ATV trail map of Maine based on input from all Maine ATV clubs. This map will be revised annually. All trails in Northern Maine open up each spring as weather permits. Those that double as snowmobile trails close when winter grooming starts. The distance one is permitted to travel on a road to connect trails has been increased to 1,500 feet - the same as the distance to cross a bridge & also the same as for snowmobiles.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Look for our new regional trail marking system. Comparable to the Maine ITS snowmobile numbered trails, trails for ATV's will now be numbered as well under the
MAINE ALL TERRAIN SYSTEM
. Main trails connecting one area to another will be designated as
"MATS"
trails. Signs are aleady posted on
MATS #1
which connects the West Branch of the Mattawamkeag River in Dyer Brook to the Houlton trails in Linneus. Work is underway now in signing an
Alternate MATS #1
through Dyer Brook for more advanced riders.
MATS
signs are posted 1 mile apart and give the latitude and longitude at each sign location.
