The Paiute ATV Trail is really, really BIG. If you are not used to true wide open spaces, it can be intimidating and confusing, and there are never enough signs for some people. The Trail is located in the middle of some of the largest public lands in the nation. If you come from the East coast, this idea that Utah is 63.0% owned by the federal government and that the State of Utah owns another 10.1% is hard to imagine. This means that the State of Utah is 73.1% public lands. Let us help break this down for you. The four Utah counties that bound the Paiute ATV Trail system are Beaver, Millard, Piute and Sevier. Sevier contain 987,720 acres of public land; Piute contains 422,907 acres of public land. Since these are rather foggy numbers, remember that an acre is about the size of a football field without the end zones. If you were to line them up you would have 80,149 MILES of public football fields. Of course, you can’t ride your ATV on every single acre. Most of them are just there for you to look at, an amazing view we must say. Now consider that the surrounding counties of Beaver, Wayne and Garfield would increase this number to 6,910,888 acres of public land, our football fields now stretch for a whopping 392,664 MILES. The entire state of Utah contains 40,065,561 +/- acres of public land. We’re sorry but our calculator blew a fuse trying to sort out the football thing for you. Want to read more??
