Description

Set on the eastern edge of the year-round Millican Plateau OHV Area, this small, roadside play area offers a 1-acre play area with nearby picnic tables. The site also serves as a staging area for exploration on adjacent OHV Trails 55 and 80, but with connecting trail loops one can access dozens of trail miles.

Know Before You Go

  • Spark arrestors are required on your OHVs, year around and on chainsaws, and generators from April 1 to October 31.
  • Campfires are permitted outside of fire season, but please keep them small and don't leave them unattended. High winds and dry conditions can fuel a wildfire even at unlikely times of the year.
  • Millican Plateau is open year-round. North Millican and South Millican have seasonal closures.
  • The Millican Plateau area is remote and visitors should be equipped to be self-sufficient. Riders should wear appropriate safety gear, carry a first aid kit, and never ride alone. Most Forest Service and BLM personnel have radios and can give assistance. There is a cellular phone repeater on Grizzly Mountain and coverage is fair for most of the area.

Point of Interest

Enjoy the views from the scenic overlook on Trail 94 at the rim of the Crooked River canyon, about a 4-mile ride from the play area. See the location on the trail system map.
