OHV permits required on full sized vehicles

[Corbet]

I agree with all of the above in theory. I'm just struggling with if or how its working in the real world. Most of the "trails" on the list are on federal lands, maintained by the NFS or BLM. While I have not dug into it deeply, common sense tells me rarely does state money get given to federal agencies. So unless the state is funding an organization like Stay the Trail please tell me how my permit money goes to support the trails.

do we know what percentage of the $25 goes to stay the trail?

I do not know what percentage goes to STT but I do know that all of the funds generated from the OHV permits go directly back into the CO OHV program, as listed in this posted link. STT gets a majority of their funding from applying for a portion of this grant yearly. One of the factors that decide the size of the grant is recorded usage (log your trail hours!)

and as a reminder, you don't have to be on your adopted trail or on a club sponsored clean up run. if you clean up any trash on any trail, log those hours!!!
