The Bruneau and Owyhee Field Offices contain outstanding opportunities for a wide range of OHV recreation, including single track for OHV motorcycles and wider trails and two-tracks for ATVs and other motorized vehicles.

The most popular area for single track is along the Owyhee Front. The BLM has established three OHV trailheads along the Owyhee Front that provide loading ramps, staging areas and restrooms.  An extensive trail network radiates from each trailhead.  The BLM is establishing a comprehensive designated trail system in this area.  Until the plan is finalized, please use existing routes.  Do not travel cross-country. Cross country travel is allowed only in the small immediate vicinity of the Hemingway Butte OHV Trailhead.

Description: These trailheads are used primarily by OHV recreationists with hundreds of miles of roads, moderate to difficult trails and sand washes on steep, rocky terrain.  Other recreational users are welcome, but be aware of the emphasis of these sites for motorized recreation.  The trailheads offer restrooms and loading ramps.

Directions: Take I-84 to Nampa and exit to Highway 55. Turn onto Highway 78 in Marsing and watch for signs that will direct you to specific trailheads. About 45 miles southwest of Boise.

Trailhead location: Located between the Melba junction and Oreana, on Highway 78.
