ATV TRAIL HARDENING POROUS PAVERS AND STRUCTURAL ATV MATTING
Create All-Terrain Coverage for ATV Trails
Build off-road trails for ATVs and small recreational vehicles over soft ground and wetlands with GEOTERRA trail-hardening mats. Repair degraded trails, eliminate trail-braided areas, and cross low, wet areas and shallow water fords. GEOTERRA mats offer low environmental access through sensitive areas and wetlands while preserving the integrity of the natural land. The open-grid mats bridge light vehicle loading over soft areas while allowing water and sunlight to permeate promoting revegetation. Built for fast trail construction and repair, rigid HDPE GEOTERRA mats are suited for the toughest conditions – they are easy to deploy and install, economical, weather-resistant and non-degradable.

The Denali Commission met Dec 12, 2007 to review the Rural Road project nominations, including the Hooper Bay nomination. The Hooper Bay project was selected. The Denali Commission will work with Federal Highway and NRCS engineers to try to develop a TRoad cook-book with ATV mini road (Troad) standards accepted for construction projects and access to federal highway funding to do so. The Alaska NPS Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance Program helped to coordinate an ATV Trail Hardening Project in Hooper Bay Alaska.
