The Stony Spur II ATV Trail begins in Babbitt and runs eastward, south of Bear Island State Forest. The Babbitt Area Development Association in association with the U.S. Forest Service manages this ATV trail.
This trail system runs nearly 21 miles and is rated as one of the easiest ATV trails to steer. The landscape has few hills and curves and is nearly road like and flat. This is a great trail system for newer ATVers to learn their navigational skills upon and gain self-confidence in handling their ATVs. The riding season for these ATV trails is from April 1 - November 30, unless the weather is bad and then the ATV trails will be closed to the public for safety reasons. Always "call before you haul" your ATV to the site and make sure the trails are open for riding.
Located in the nearby town of Babbitt, there are amenities for food, restroom facilities, gas and lodging in case you want to spend the night it and get up and start your ATV outing the next day. The trails on this ATV trail system are well marked and very well maintained. Even novice ATVers won't have any difficulty following the trail markers. This area is thickly wooded and offers up a great ride for you and your ATV.
As with all US Forest Service Managed areas, these ATV trails necessitate that you wear your DOT approved helmet at all times when operating your ATV and you must have a current license and ATV permit in plain sight on your ATV at all times. ATVers under the age of 16 must ride with a licensed adult that is also riding an ATV.
