This year we’re confident we’ll find the perfect tree at Noble Canyon so arrive early enough to be ready for the pre-ride safety meeting at 9:50am.
IMPORTANT – remember there is no unloading of ATVs before the cattleguard. Please drive up or past the cattleguard to unload your machine then go park your truck/trailer back along the paved portion of the road. Please don’t park right around the cattleguard, longer trailers need this area to get turned around.
The ride plan for the day is to cover as much fun trail as possible and find a great spot to have a lunch campfire.

Saturday October 12 – A little mixup with the keys for the snowmobile club trail gates at Silver Star meant switching to plan b for last week’s ride and enjoyed the Noble Canyon trails. It was a perfect day with beautiful weather, fun trails and good friends enjoying the best lunchtime viewpoint around.
This is always a fun one so don’t miss out on a chance for a FREE BBQ, meet other riders and a tour of the awesome Mt Ida trails.
Starting from the Silver Creek Community Park on Salmon River Road where there’s lots of parking, direct access to great trails and a large open area to hold a bbq.

It’s still wacky weather season so bring gear for sun, rain or hail. Don’t forget your bug spray because we’ll stop to enjoy the view at one or more places along the ride.
Rides and events are open to everyone, we encourage new riders to come out for a couple of rides to meet club members, find new trails and get a sense of the club before joining.

It’s important that your lights work well for this ride, the Mara Mountain trail is rough so you’ll want to be able to be able to navigate the rocks and bumps.
There will be a short safety meeting before the 6:00pm ride start.
Ride Details:
The King Eddy area is an ATV mecca and almost every ride goes by or stops at the King Eddy Lake Recreation site.
This heavily used Recreation Site is located immediately off King Edward FSR so it provides easy access for camping and fishing year round. Most site visitors are respectful and pack out what they bring in but the ATV Club has had to hold a number of cleanups here over the years.
In addition to keeping an eye on the site and cleaning up as necessary, the partnership agreement will allow for the development of a nude beach on the lower bench. “There were a lot of requests for a nude beach at King Eddy”, says Past President Clint Ingham. “ATVers need a place to cool off in the summer and some riders don’t want to get their gear wet so we had a surprising number of people asking for a nude beach here”.
“We thank Recreation, Sites and Trails for helping us through all the paperwork and approvals required to get this agreement,” said Ingham. Signs designating the nude beach will be going up in the next few weeks once the ice is off the lake.
