The route features high mountain meadows, creeks, six natural lakes, unique granite mountains, cliffs and panoramic views. The trail is rated "most difficult” and is a major challenge to travel, therefore having advanced driving skills is highly recommended.
The Four Wheel Drive Club of Fresno was founded in 1954 in Fresno, Calif. The club has since built ten trails and currently maintains six. The club coordinates with the forest service to perform clearing in the spring, closings in the fall and other various work projects throughout the year on the entire club’s adopted trails.

BFGoodrich® Tires 2011 Outstanding Trails
The Indiana Four Wheel Drive Association on behalf of Interlake Trail 19, and the Magic City 4-Wheelers, Inc., on behalf of Morrison Trail, have been chosen by BFGoodrich® Tires to receive a $4,000 grant to use towards maintain the trails. The grants will be used to preserve the scenic off-highway trail system and continue conservation efforts for two of America’s most beautiful areas for off-roading.
• Interlake Trail 19, in Lynnville, Ind., is a 3,500-acre property, owned and managed by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. The existing trail is a beautiful cruise through conifer and hardwood trees that are 40 to 50 years old. On a sunny summer day, the shade offers a nice diversion from the open prairie-like trails of the central areas of Interlake. The area not only offers motorized trail riding, but activities for all types of outdoor enthusiasts including hunting, fishing, horseback riding and mountain climbing. A rock garden is being planned, which has the potential to be one of the longest man-made rock crawling courses in the region.
Indiana Four Wheel Drive Association (IFWDA) was formed in 1980 and acts on the common concern for motorized recreation while practicing stewardship of our natural resources. IFWDA, through its association with other state and national organizations, works to promote and act on issues affecting four-wheel drive recreation.
• Morrison Trail, in Wyoming’s Shoshone National Forest, offers various types of terrain including arid canyons, alpine forests, high mountain meadows and small lakes at 10,000 feet. Hitting the trail shortly after it opens in mid-July is a gift as off-road enthusiasts will have the pleasure of experiencing a carpet of beautiful wildflowers in the meadows. The panoramic views from almost every part of the trail are breathtaking and inspiring.
Magic City 4-Wheelers, Inc. is a family oriented OHV club. The club organizes annual race rallies, monthly trail rides and trail maintenance trips. Magic City 4-Wheelers always follow the Tread Lightly! trail ethic and educate others when possible regarding proper trail ethic.
