OHV Trail Maps for Southeastern Utah

Have you ever been to Moab or the surrounding area and needed a map to get around, and all you can find area some maps that are okay but not the best? Well that is where I come in. I've spent the last seventeen years hiking around southeastern Utah, and about two years ago I started creating custom topo maps of the area on weatherproof paper and tear resistant paper. I now have over 40 maps of Bike, Jeep, ATV, and Hiking trails for the four-corners area of Utah.

Just visit my website www.otbpmaps.com to see all our maps and great prices on outdoor equipment. Plus, I want to share my knowladge of the area so if you have any questions that I might be able to help you with please feel free to contact me or blog me.

About Me

I grew-up on several different USFS Ranger Stations in central Idaho during the 1960s. This is where he learned to love the outdoors. Around the age of nine, he went on his first survival trip and began working with his father, Larry Wells, who ran his own wilderness survival program. As early as he can remember, his father taught him how to read a map and to navigate in the backcountry. Monte improved these skills though his service in the military as an army medic. After spending a number of years in the Army National Guard, working in private security, and working in local and federal law enforcement, he returned to college. Monte received a bachelors’ degree in Anthropology /Archaeology. In 2004, Off The Beaten Path Maps was created so that Monte and Larry could share their knowledge of orienteering, archaeology, wilderness logistics, and Monte’s GIS (Global Information Systems) cartography (map making) skills with both the professional industry and outdoor enthusiasts.
