Riding and Camping - Fire Restrictions
(ODF fire level is currently set to Moderate)

RIDING DURING FIRE SEASON - John's Peak OHV is private property and not governed by
ODF, however we do follow their guidelines in respects to spark arrestors, staying on vegetation free trails and carrying a fire extinguisher during fire season. The area is open, but we hope people use common sense and make good decisions with respect to fire danger. Please check the ODF Fire levels before riding.

Motor vehicles, including motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles, are only permitted on improved roads free of flammable vegetation. Possession of the following firefighting equipment is required while traveling, except on state highways, county roads and driveways: one shovel and one gallon of water or one shovel and one 2½ pound or larger fire extinguisher. All-terrain vehicles and motorcycles must be equipped with one 2½ pound or larger fire extinguisher.

Exception: Class I & III All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) are permitted to travel without a tool, water or extinguisher when operating on designated trails within the designated area.
Class II ATVs must carry a shovel AND fire extinguisher or water.
Class IV ATVs must carry a fire extinguisher at all times.

CAMPING AT LILLY PRAIRIE - Camping is first come first serve. All camping is primitive and there is no water available. There are vault toilets. We would prefer if you were an MRA member to camp at Lily Prairie. That way you are informed with events, notices or projects going on up at the Peak. Make sure all your OHV have current stickers and spark arrestors. The Sheriff has been patrolling the mountain and will be checking. Please check the ODF fire level in regards to camp fire restrictions. Again there is no water available. Be sure your camp fire is put out before you leave.

Dedicated2Dirt

The Dedicated2Dirt fund was created in 2012 for funds donated expressly for property acquisitions.

The MRA has several property acquisitions that will be coming available in the very near future. The MRA needs donations to secure these opportunities.

You can now donate to Dedicated2Dirt through the Oregon Bottle Drop Redemption centers. There are several way to do this.

1) BLUE BAGS AND TAGS

At the general membership meetings, we will have blue return bags with the MRA tag on them. Just fill those up and drop off at any Bottle Drop Redemption center. Scan the bag tag to open the secure Drop Door and throw them in. If you would like bags/tags before meetings or you need a lot of them, please reach out. We can get them to you.
Contact MRA here

2) DONATE FROM YOUR BOTTLE DROP ACCOUNT
Click here for website Bottle Drop Redemption Center login

Go to your Bottle Drop account online (not the mobile app) and login. Go to MY ACCOUNT. Click on the Donate from Your balance - USE GIVE tab. Search Nonprofits for Motorcycle Riders Association. You can say how much of your account balance you would like to donate. You do have to remember to do this from time to time. It's not a permanent designation.
