Motor Vehicle Use Maps

The Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) displays Forest roads and trails open to motor vehicles and when they are open. If a route is not shown on the MVUM, it is not open to public motor vehicle travel. Some routes may not be signed on the ground, and it is the user's responsibility to refer to the MVUM and ensure they are on an open route. 

 

Oversnow Vehicle Use Maps

The winter version of the MVUM, the OSVUMs show the prohibitions and open areas for use of over-snow vehicles on the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest. They show established snowmobile routes as well as routes that are open to snowmobiles in areas closed to cross-country snowmobile travel. For detailed information about motorized routes for wheeled vehicles, see the MVUMs, which show roads to access snowmobile areas that are open to highway vehicles during certain seasons.
