THE FLEET

Brand-new UTVs with in-console GPS

Rentals use the latest UTV models fitted with Ride Command-style, in-console GPS systems so you can navigate the open desert and backcountry routes with confidence.

From petrified sand dunes to rocky singletrack, the area delivers a vast, varied playground—more than 550,000 acres of off‑road access within reach of the Grand Valley OHV Playground.

THE LOGISTICS

The rental base sits about five minutes from the Grand Valley OHV trailhead, so you can arrive and ride without towing; the operator also advertises competitive pricing and straightforward pickup and return procedures.
