Salt Valley Road Connector

Non-Resident OHV permits apply to ATVs, UTVs, and dirt bikes. Plated street-legal vehicles typically do not need one on legal motorized routes. This route changes character as you travel, beginning as a fairly maintained road on the north end before gradually becoming rougher and less maintained farther south. The easier northern section allows for a more relaxed drive, while the southern miles feel more remote and require greater attention to the trail surface. This area remains active, open ranching, so drivers should stay alert for cows on or near the road, as well as the occasional cow pie left in the travel lane. Several smaller washouts are scattered along the route and may seem minor at first, but ongoing traffic and seasonal water erosion can deepen them over time and increase the challenge.
