Trail Etiquette at BMDSF

On Hoberg's Loop Trail

Hikers, mountain cyclists and equestrians are increasingly sharing the trails they travel and have a concern for minimizing the impact on the trails. All trail users who are aware of others and practice treading lightly will help reduce conflicts and environmental damage, making everyone's experience more enjoyable. Multi-use etiquette promotes an equal regard for all, recognizing with respect the specific needs of each user group.  For a more complete listing click here (Adobe Reader required).

 

MOUNTAIN BIKERS

Yield to horses and hikers.

HIKERS/WALKERS

Yield to horses.

HORSEBACK RIDERS

Make sure your horse is not “punching holes” in the trail (this occurs on wet trails) or breaking down the edge of the trail. Remember that some of the trails can become quite narrow and may not be rideable without ruining the trail.
