Trail Overview

BLM 1 in the Pipestone OHV area is designated for 50" or less vehicles. It leaves from the Pipestone Trailhead parking area and starts as a flat, wide road, with gravel and loose rocks. It goes through a pinch point for ATVs and along a fence line at the base of rolling grassy hills with a nice view of the snow-capped mountains in the background. It has some whoops and embedded rocks on the surface of the dirt, with small hills and descents, but it is overall straightforward. It's mostly just an access road to the rest of the trails in the OHV area. This goes through a low-elevation grassy terrain that can be hot in the summer.
