Dispersed Camping Area  
  
Located just south of the Tushar Mountain Peaks, Big John Flat area is a
favorite recreational spot because of its large meadows that have spectacular
scenery. This area also offers opportunities for winter sport enthusiasts such
as snowmobiling and cross-country skiing. Common vegetation includes Engelmann
spruce, aspen and fir stands with large meadows. The general terrain is a
large meadow encompassed by trees. This area is open to ATV use on designated
roads and trails. Please help prevent erosion and soil compaction by staying
on roads and main driving trails. Driving on the meadows creates ruts or
channels that water flows through, removing topsoil and creating scars that
last many lifetimes. Delicate meadow plants can be damaged, leaving less
forage for wildlife and leaving the soil unprotected. when riders drive
through the trees and around them in circles the soil becomes compacted,
depriving root systems of water and air, this will eventually kill the tree.
