What began ten years ago as a meeting of 25 horsemen to discuss the increasing loss of riding areas snowballed into what is today a 180-mile system of interconnected, multi-use White Mountains TrailSystem. The non-motorized loops and trails, designed to preserve the land, vegetation and wildlife, wind from Vernon to Pinedale to Pinetop-Lakeside and are accessible to hikers, bikers, cross-country skiers, and horseback riders.

Be sure to stop in at the Pinetop-Lakeside Chamber of Commerce for maps and information on specific trails.
