Longest ATV Trail in US

Great Western Trail
I would have to say the Great Western Trail has to be one of the longest in the USA but I could be wrong.
to quote:
"The Great Western Trail is a unique corridor of braided and paralleling trails for both motorized and non-motorized users. The trail system traverses 4,455 miles through Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana."
I have ridden much of it in Utah, here is what the same site has to say about the Utah section:
"Over 1,600 miles of Great Western Trail exist in Utah. The trail begins at the Idaho border west of Bear Lake near Beaver Mountain. It then passes along the Wasatch Front near Peter Sinks and Hardware Ranch, moving down through Brighton Ski Resort, around Mount Timpanogos, and east to Skyline Drive. Trails continues past Fish Lake moving south near Bryce Canyon National Park, Deer Springs Wash, through the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument and exits the state midway between Kanab and Page, Arizona."
Here is the link I referenced, good luck planning your trip, I wish I had a month to just ride, so I am very envious.

long trail
I just remembered this site that actually rode the Great Western Trail in its entirety along with sections of Canada (before entering the USA) and Mexico (after exiting the USA). I find this a great reference for what to expect on a multi day ATV trip. perhaps it would be useful for you too?

I can't locate the article- I read it maybe a year or two ago- but (aside from the useless ma, ct & ri states) nh, vt & me is an atv trail jackpot- northern newengland never gets due credit- but between those 3 states alone I bet you're looking at around 6000+ miles of trails- and a lot of them run into ny & canada- just most of them are very rocky- but beautiful.

I have seen trails that go into Canada here in Maine, but am not sure about the logistics of crossing the border and riding in another country. I know that you can ride from one end of Aroostook County to the other on ATV trails. I know this year I want to try the new Downeast Rail Trail. Its not that exciting as far as atv trails go, but should be good for some unique scenery.

Once in Jackman it's a full days ride to go east over to the Moosehead Lake area.
When we stayed in Jackman it took us maybe 2-2.5 hours to go to the Canada/US border.
Not a lot of technical trails. Mostly open logging roads with a speed limit around 30-35 if I remember right.
