You can turn your social ride into a helpful Trail Recon by using a few key features of the Avenza Maps app.

Data provided by our members and trail users is compiled into a work program plan. Their efforts help us know where trails need maintenance and what the issue looks like by including photos and where trail signage or markings are missing or confusing.

We've made maps of the Withlacoochee State Forest Citrus (Tillis Hill Equestrian Campground) and Croom (Tucker Hill) Tracts available for FREE on Avenza Maps app.

If you find an issue on the Citrus Tract trails, please email your gps track and pins to us:

Here are a few videos to get you started using Avenza purposefully and strategically.

In support of our Mission to maintain trails we had a fun work day on the northern part of the Citrus Tract of the Withlacoochee State Forest. We hope you'll come and ride that part of the forest soon. Equestrian parking is available across from Holder Mine Campground.

The BCHA (Back Country Horsemen of America) mission is to perpetuate the common-sense use and enjoyment of horses in America's back country and wilderness, ensuring public lands remain open to recreational stock use through volunteer work, education, and advocacy to protect and maintain trails for all equestrians and outdoor enthusiasts.

Thank you to everyone that helped out. Karen, Lillian, Karen too, Cheri, Francine, Steve, Gene and Paul we appreciate you supporting our equestrian community with your valuable time and talents. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™
