What to bring

We highly recommend wearing appropriate riding attire. ATV’s can radiate heat from engine and drive-train components. Radiated heat can quickly become unpleasant against bare skin. Additionally, outdoor environments can often present an additional layer of challenges from wildlife and vegetation. Wearing tank tops, shorts, skirts, dresses, open sandals, or other attire that directly exposes your skin to the elements is NOT advisable. At minimum, long sleeved tops, rugged jeans, and over-the-ankle style boots / shoes are highly recommended.
