Spiffy:
I'm often one of the first people to speak up about treading lightly and respecting the Wheelers CODE, but in all fairness to Albie - the shots look like public lands. Thus, not part of the BLM, Forest Service, etc. Read below to see why I draw this assumption.
I don't know where you live, since you're a newbie and have decided to conceal your location. Albie is from California, as I am and we have acres of this public land that is along the Cal-Nevada border. Since Albie posted similar shots that were in the vicinity of Death Valley and Vegas; I recall the area having acres of "free access" land where NO TRAILS exist. How can one stay on the marked trail, when presented with open steppe where free access is granted? There's literally nothing more than power lines out there.
The Western USA is a bit different than other parts of the country. I live in a town of 12,000 and we have more "established" trails and OHV Parks per capita than just about any where in the nation. We respect the CODE, but there are thousands of acres of public flat lands across the border in Nevada where you can roam freely - places where Starbucks, Blockbuster, and swarms of people have not invaded.
