California BACKROADS & 4WD TRAILS

We think these trails are, collectively, the best batch of California trails ever put together in one place. Whether you are a newcomer to 4-wheeling or an experienced veteran, we guarantee you’ll have fun. The new format shows every detail about a trail on a handy two-page spread. Easy, moderate and difficult routes are color coded, while vehicle symbols quickly show kinds of vehicles allowed on each trail.

This includes unlicensed UTVs, ATVs and dirt bikes. Reverse mileages are now included for all trails, and more historical highlights have been added. A separate mileage log has numbered locations that graphically jump off the page. Our new maps now include detailed relief backgrounds, referencing the numbered locations between the mileage log and map makes it easy to sense your location.

In addition, exact GPS coordinates are provided for each numbered location.This book replaces two previous black-and-white books that were written over a decade ago. In that time, some of the trails were closed. We whittled our list of open trails down to the best 100.
