Breshears is a collection of dirt roads, ATV trails, and singletrack between Mt. Fanny and Mt. Harris. The terrain requires a full arsenal of skills ranging from creek crossings to steep rocky climbs that require carefully chosen lines and stellar balance. Enjoy a 11 mile, 2,300 ft climb right out of the gate up to near the summit of Mt. Fanny. Then dive down the most scenic section, a singletrack along Indian Creek. Eventually rejoin the ATV trail for a bit before taking the second section of singeltrack that hugs the slope and takes you out to a sweet overlook of the Grande Ronde Valley.

The mingletrack is about 20 percent singletrack and mostly ATV trails, although you likely will not see any motorized vehicles. The ATV maps are presented also at the Forest Service Website.

Park along Rd 6205 and begin there. However, a new entry is under development.

The route shown here follows clockwise loops, which ends up being a figure 8. This is the preferred MTB route by the legend Bill Gerst.
