Guys need to get informed where they plan on riding. No excuse anymore with GPS and the such. Just hurts our sport.

I find a lot of closed areas lack signage. I think areas that are closed off should have some sort of better notification or something. I for one assume public land is open to everyone. Not one single GPS I own shows anything about closures so if your not familiar with a area I could see how easy it would be to cross lines.

That’s true but no matter how good the signage is people always will say “I didn’t see the sign”. Check out boonmaps on the App Store. Has downloadable maps for offline use with the caribou areas defined. Very helpful.

Will they work on the mountain if there is no phone coverage Johnny?

Anyone with more information that could elaborate on the area ?? If a guy visits a new area like this, what’s the best way to find info? (I’m not a download apps kinda guy, but definitely read and use maps kinda guy...)
