Millican/ODOT play area, OR
The Millican/ODOT Pit is located east of Millican on Highway 20 in an Oregon Department of Transportation gravel pit. The Millican/ODOT pit is considered the best play area in the state of Oregon. It provides challenges for riders at all levels of experience. The gravel mounds provide excellent jumping opportunities. There are flats around the perimeter of the pit.
The Millican/ODOT pit has ample parking space for vehicles towing trailers and camping. A kiosk keeps riders informed of regulations and closures as well as providing maps of nearby OHV trail systems. A chemical toilet is on site. The site also serves as a staging area for access to North Millican OHV Trail System and Millican Plateau OHV Trail System.
The play area is designed for Class I and Class III ATV's, which are quads, three-wheelers, and motorcycles less than 50" wide. It is not a play area for four-wheel drives. Oregon Department of Transportation hauls rock out of the pit occasionally, so please ride carefully and pay attention to traffic in and out of the pit.
The Millican/ODOT Pit is open all year but dry, dusty conditions may inhibit use during the late summer months. Likewise, snow in the winter may discourage riders winter riding.
This facility is being developed and maintained for your enjoyment through a cooperative effort by the Bureau of Land Management, the Forest Service, Oregon ATV Fund, Central Oregon Motorcycle and ATV Club and many other volunteers.
