(map showing approximate location of the ride, in the Black Hills)

The Black Hills National Forest calls them forest service roads, but some riders call them 82′ non-width restricted trails. Many of these forest service roads are trail-like!
These are the trails the wider machines can legally use. Some of these trails are open year-round. These are the trails that often take you into the mystery and history of the Black Hills.
There are over 3,000 miles of these forest service road, 82″ non-width restricted trail-like trails. These trails are numbered on the MVUM, with three digit numbers like 201 or 201 2A.

There are no trails in the Black Hills like the trail-like forest service roads of the My Favorite Drive, Elk Mountain Drive. It is framed by the results of a 2001, 21,000 acre forest fire that took most of the trees. But the trails are still there; open all year-around. And still there, is the wide-open scenery!
