PA WILDS PENNSYLVANIA:
2024 Riding Season Route Updates

New Tracks Available for Download

We are in the process of releasing updated GPS track files for every one of our routes in an ongoing effort to keep track files current and evolving with changing route conditions and considerations for fuel.

As a general reference to the updates for track files labeled xxBDR-March2024:

Some section starts/ends have shifted in our track files and may not match older versions of the BDR Map. We typically aim to keep each section less than 150mi in length. Sections that exceed this length generally have fuel options along the route or optional tracks to a nearby town for fuel along the way.

Regardless of the documentary film, older track files, or previous map versions, the most current GPS track file is always considered the “current” route.

Some routes have had updates for track difficulty classifications, new tracks added, shifts to section starts or ends, and additional waypoints and these updates will be reflected on the next map reprint.

All track files have been updated with revised naming conventions, track colors, waypoints, discovery points, and more.

GPS track colors have been updated as follows:
- Main Route: Alternating BLUE and DARK BLUE
- ALT Harder & ALT Expert tracks: RED
- Bypass, Extension, or Optional Fuel tracks: GREEN

Our track colors will now carry over when imported into Gaia GPS. If they do not match these colors when you import, simply manually change the track colors to match, or select your own preferred track colors.

GPS track colors don’t necessarily match the BDR Map. This is due to the difference in color visibility on GPS devices vs printed paper map products.

Updates to our interactive map are in process to reflect these updates. You can launch the interactive map HERE.
