Power-Up for OSV Recreation in 2017
As the snow season kicks off in California and the West, QWR
wants to thank POLARIS, Klim, and California Custom Trailers and Powersports, a
Northern California POLARIS dealer, for
their generous support in helping us launch our official OSV trail stewardship
module for the 2017 winter riding season with use of a 2017 Polaris PRO-RMK 800.

OSV-based recreation brings an important economic benefit
to many rural areas and supports local dealerships and the jobs they
create. According to the International
Snowmobile Manufacturers Association, OSVs contribute $26 billion annually in
the United States. Over 100,000 full
time jobs are generated by the snowmobile industry in North America. Those jobs
are involved in manufacturing, dealerships and tourism related businesses.

Trevor Messersmith, Sales Manager for Cal Custom
Trailers/Powersports, states, “Our dealership is proud to once again sponsor
Don’s work to champion responsible OSV recreation on Forest Service trails and
open areas. Access to public lands is
important for our customers and for the shop’s staff who love to enjoy
snowmobile recreation with their family and friends.”
QWR supports the efforts of the Forest Service and other
land agencies to update and enhance their OSV management programs. Tenets of managed snowmobile recreation
should include designated trails and open areas, adequate staging/parking,
quality signing, partnerships, maps, education, and enforcement.
QWR’s OSV module will continue to represent our partners
and clients in various federal and state OSV planning or legislative efforts. Such initiatives include the Forest Service
Subpart C OSV Travel Planning Process, reauthorization of the CA OHMVR Program,
and promotion of the SAE J2567 OSV sound standard for field level enforcement.
