About the Event
We will be riding some trail systems in the UP of Michigan over the Memorial weekend. The group will start at the Porterfield Motorcycle Trails and will also ride the Bass Lake trails. In addition, there is a new connector trail between these two systems.
Trail information can be found here: https://www.michigan.gov/dnr/things-to-do/orv-riding/maps-list Also, trail maps can be downloaded into Avenza from the Avenza store.
You will need to get Michigan ORV stickers for your bike(s). You need two stickers, the base ORV sticker and then the add on Trail sticker. You can buy these online and have them mailed to you, or you can buy them at a local gas station.

Some of us will be arriving on Thursday afternoon/evening, some are arriving on Friday, and plan on camping at the trailhead. There is a vault toilet there, but no water.
