This is from the D 37 board, I thought I would help spead the word
There is an urgent need for volunteer help at the Wildomar OHV Area on the weekends for the next few months. For those of you that don't know, the Wildomar OHV Area is a little known off-road recreation area in the mountains just to the south of Lake Elsinore. It is in the Trabuco Ranger District of the Cleveland National Forest.
For years this area has been virtually neglected by the Forest Service but that has changed. The Forest Service has hired a fulltime OHV Manager, John Mavrolas, to oversee the operations at Wildomar. John is a strong OHV enthusiast himself with a background riding dirt bikes, ATVs and four wheel drive vehicles. He has big plans for Wildomar to make it into a premier OHV training facility and riding area and has already begun the daunting task of restoring the area.
Part of John's plans include creating a volunteer organization to help with the activities at Wildomar and forest wide within the Cleveland National Forest. The organization has already been formed and is seeking new volunteer members. It is called the Cleveland National Forest Off-Highway Volunteer Association (CNFOHVA). Initially the CNFOHVA will focus its work at Wildomar with plans to expand to Corral Canyon in the Descanso Ranger District and forest wide as needed. Please sign up as a member of the CNFOHVA if you can. It costs nothing and the only thing we ask is that you volunteer to help work whenever you can.
As for the immediate task at hand, if you can help, please be at the Wildomar OHV Area main staging area at 9am on Saturday and/or Sunday mornings. If you want more information about the CNFOHVA and work plans please contact Ranger Mavrolas at 909-609-1480 or leave a message for him at 909-678-4170. You can also contact Alan Klumph at the San Diego Off-Road Coalition at 619-561-9139 or by email at alank@sdorc.org.
To get to the Wildomar OHV Area take Interstate 15 to Lake Elsinore and exit at State Highway 74 (the Ortega Highway) and follow it west. You will go through a business area at the north end of Lake Elsinore and then head up the side of the mountain. At the top of the mountain take a left (south) on Killen Trail and follow it about 9 miles to the Wildomar OHV Area.
Please pass this message along to anyone you think may be interested in helping with this worthwhile project to improve our OHV opportunities.
