About
The Bill Moore/North Empire Loop is a network of roads for OHV opportunities located north of Empire.
This road is very rocky and steep, especially to Bill Moore Lake. A 4-wheel drive, high-clearance vehicle is highly recommended.
Refer to the Clear Creek Ranger District's Motor Vehicle Use Map [http://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/cs/detail/!ut/p/z1/04_Sj9CPykssy0xPLMnMz0vMAfIjo8zijQwgwNHCwN_DI8zPyBcqYKAfjlVBmA9cQRQx-g1wAEci9eNREIXf-HD9KH0CHtDHb4KfR35uqn5BbmhohEGWCQCHVD_f/dz/d5/L2dBISEvZ0FBIS9nQSEh/?position=Feature.Html&pname=Arapaho&ss=110210&navtype=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&pnavid=null&navid=360000000000000&ttype=detail&cid=fsm91_058275]for more information about OHV opportunities in the area.
Note: Due to high elevation, the area is not generally snow-free until late June or even July in some years. Best late spring through fall.
