Mt. Fanny OR
Breshears is a small, family system of motorized trails offering approximately 20 miles of easy-moderate difficulty ATV trails in a mountainous forested setting. The trails are commonly used by motorcyclists and mountain bicyclers as well. Approximately 40% are single track trails and 60% are very low-standard roads. The trails go through some outstanding back-country where breathtaking views of the Grande Ronde Valley and Eagle Cap Wilderness can be enjoyed. The high elevation makes Memorial Day to Labor Day the usual riding season. Huckleberry picking is also popular in this area. The City of La Grande is nearby. Moss Springs Campground lies to the south. The Eagle Cap Wilderness borders Breshears trail system to the east.
