This video is a day of ATV trail riding on the Leota Trail system in Michigan. My son Kyle and I spent the day on a combination of snow, wet, and sandy 50" trails. The trails were awesome with several obstacles of trees and branches from the winter. A great location and lots of fun!

I like seeing a rider in front of you. Gives a different perspective of the trail. Nice video.

Thank you for the feedback and stopping by the channel to watch this video. Leota is one of the better trail systems in Michigan and one of the largest. My Son Kyle was the rider ahead of me on this trip. I remember we had lunch on the trail and we must have been one of the first riders after snow met with all of the branches and trees blocking the trail. This was a fun day!

So once you get on past of the stones you just follow that trail and that is one big loop and it’ll bring you right back to that parking lot. ? Thank you Thomas

Apologies for the delayed response. I was on an extended camping trip riding ATV trails. Yes, the trail that crosses the Muskegon River. That is a loop and the lead in/out takes you to the start of the loop and would return you to the Leota Trailhead.

hey scott, i enjoy the calm nature of your videos. also, your speech is articulate, and you provide detailed descriptions; you seem like you could be a retired engineer. 😊 i often use your videos to scout potential locations for my next trail rides. leota is my favorite trail by far. do you think you will ever upload a video of leota in summer?

Thank you so much!!! I appreciate the great feedback and compliment. Yes, I will be recording Leota in 2024 during warmer months. I just ride Leota in January on one of the warmer days. My GoPro was not cooperating. I will be recording the two different sections. The loop over the bridge that was in this video and the loops to the east closer to US 127. I have a couple more ATV videos coming in march/april for missaukee and geels. All the best to you.

Nice video , I plan on riding there this spring. So in that video you rode the loop that you showed earlier with the blue markings on the map indicating the trail ? And I was wondering are you riding from the Leota Trail Head on Joneville Road ? Any information would be greatly appreciated thank you

Thank you for visiting the channel and watching the video. Yes, the trailhead used was at the end of Jonesville Road. When you start riding, look for the very large rock at 2:20 in the video and just after it and before the smaller three rocks is where you want to drive in between. There is a red gate and an opening that will accommodate dirt bikes, 50" ATVs, or narrower side by sides. There is a long path with wood rails on both sides leading to the bridge that crosses the Muskegon River. There is a little sandy play area after the bridge on your left. This mapping system will help you: midnr.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=1710727ba3ec4c64928110fdb4f7799d Also, here is a nice map of the Leota Trails that has numbers and is glorious as it makes the trail easy to navigate with the marked numbered areas on the trail. On this map, the circled "P" is at the end of Jonesville Road and you would head for the circled "1" if you wanted to ride what he video showed. Here is that map link: www.michigantrails.us/michigan-trail-maps/leota.pdf Enjoy and please let me know after your drive if you enjoyed it. Also, the Leota Trail goes towards the east as well with several loops and connects to the Denton Creek Trail and eventually the St. Helen Trail. Houghton Lake is a great place to gas up and grab some lunch. Enjoy!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you Sonya for checking the video out. Fred Sharpsteen and I will be walking the horse trail from Oscoda to Empire in September that will take about 12 days. It is called the Shore-to-Shore trail or STS.
