Just to holler out there.  Came down with rocky mountain spotted fever,came from a little tick. Not anything to joke about within one year I'm messed up ,have nerve damage and probably lung and heart. And have this because of a tick ,drs say nothing they can do about it as I already have the antibodies inside the damaged is done.  Just thought I'd put this out there.  When you go into the woods cover up and spray deet onto yourself.  You don't want this. I promise you ,they say it almost killed me.

Ticks are no joke!  I would recommend using permethrin to help avoid them.  Treat your cloths not your body. Soak your riding gear in it and let it dry. It’s good for a few weeks or a few washes. Only thing I’ve found that actually seems to work.

      Pine Mountain Trails ATV Park (Oklahoma) Ride Report & Trail Guide
      Located in the rugged Kiamichi Mountains of southeastern Oklahoma, Pine Mountain Trails ATV Park offers over 70 miles of natural, backcountry-style off-road trails across 1,700+ acres. This is not a groomed park—it's a raw, terrain-driven riding experience built for real off-road enthusiasts.
      Trail System Deep Dive
      The trail system is designed around long loops, minimizing dead ends and maximizing ride time.
      Rocky climbs and descents Creek crossings and mud sections Tight wooded trails and open play areas Natural terrain with minimal artificial features Ride Conditions
      Conditions vary significantly:
      Dry: Fast, dusty, and loose on climbs Wet: Mud-heavy, slick, and highly technical Camping & Riding Experience
      Pine Mountain offers a more primitive, nature-focused atmosphere:
      Primitive camping and RV hookups available 24-hour riding for campers Less crowded than major trail systems Family-owned property with relaxed environment Fees & Access
      $15 per rider (kids 10 & under free) Camping: $15/night Electric hookups available Cash only Navigation Tips
      Use Google Maps for directions Limited cell service inside park Trail maps available at check-in Best Winches for Pine Mountain
      With steep terrain and remote sections, a winch is essential gear.
      ATV: 3500–4500 lb UTV: 4500–6000 lb Synthetic rope recommended Shop Winches Best Tires for Mountain Terrain
      Deep lug mud tires (1"+ tread) 8–10 ply for durability Radial construction for mixed terrain Shop ATV Tires Essential Recovery Gear
      Tow straps Shackles Air compressor Tire repair kit Shop Recovery Gear Who This Park Is Best For
      This park is best suited for intermediate to advanced riders who enjoy natural terrain, elevation changes, and a more self-supported riding experience.
      Final Thoughts
      Pine Mountain Trails stands out as one of the best backcountry-style ATV parks in Oklahoma. With long loop trails, natural terrain, and 24-hour riding for campers, it offers a unique experience compared to more commercial parks.

      I just bought a rare beast!
      By kawasig
      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!
