Hello ChopperBill.
Some friends and myself rode all of the paiute trail this last weekend. We didn’t take any side trails however.
I found the section from Circleville to the Paiute Indian Museum in Clear Creek Canyon to be the most scenic. This section also has the most trail and has the most difficult sections.
If doing this section , I would not miss the chance to detour down Deer Creek ( trail # 74 ) for a meal at Hoover Café. This trail drops down a canyon along a stream with several crossings and some good food at the end. I did that ride yesterday.
I hope this helps.

I picked up a Fishlake National Forest Travel Map and a Paiute Trail Map from the local forest service office. Odds are your local office will have these maps also.

A couple of sites that I have found on the Web may help. www.marysvale.org/contents.html
This site contains maps, pictures, and all kinds of information on the Paiute trail. The other site I have found that is helpful is www.marysvale.org/atvlinks.html
This site conatins many links to Utah ATV web pages.

Can you ride on the street in Richfield>?
Also, Is the Super 8 Motel in Richfield nice?
Finally, Has anyone been to this National ATV Jamboree in Filmore, Utah? if so, how was it, and how were the trails?

Phil, I've covered alot of Cedar Mountain the past few years...I usually go out to Three Peaks if I just want to tear it up on the EX. Where did you order your Raptor..how much was it (if you don't mind me asking?).
Yeah, your kid is lucky to get that bike at such a young age...I'm jealous
I'm trying to convince my wife we need a Raptor and a Rubicon in addition to what we have already...she ain't bitin'. Later, Drew.

Hi 3TV:
We're planning a trip on the Paiute Trail this fall b4 the jamboree. What's your opinion on the best place to stay. We've discussed Richfield, but it looks like there are more facilities in Marysvale. 2 in our group are driving and trailering machines from Cleveland, while the other 2 of us are flying to either Las Vegas or Salt Lake City. Also is it easier or shorter to get to Vegas or Salt Lake from the trail. Thanks for any info you have.

Don
