Sierra Buttes Trail Steward continued post-Dixie Fire maintenance work on Mount Hough will be supported in part through $9,681 from the Polaris Off Road Trails Grant program, which will fund work days to clear five ATV/4×4 trails on Hough. The goal is maintaining essential OHV routes by clearing fallen trees and debris, ensuring that double-wide ATV and 4X4 trails remain safe and accessible for both recreation and emergency use. The crew’s work will also improve riding conditions by addressing fire-damaged terrain, stabilizing eroded sections and mitigating hazards that pose risks to OHV users, such as hazard trees. They will conduct targeted tree removal throughout the dry season, logging out fire-affected trees to prevent blockages and reduce the ongoing risk of falling debris.
