The Rocky Mountain ATV & SxS Jamboree takes place every year in beautiful Richfield, Utah. Each year an average of 400 to 500 ATV & SxS enthusiasts take part in the Rocky Mountain ATV Jamboree which is one of the largest ATV & SxS Riding Event in the United States |
The event began in 1993 and Max Reid has been there from the start. He explained that they started with only 75 riders and were a bit discouraged after the first year. They chose to try again and each year the event grew. Peak attendance was reached in 2000 when over 800 riders converged upon the Jamboree. Since then attendance has leveled out around 400-500 riders each year.

“We have a great amount of riders that come each year. They not only come for the trails but also the friendships that they make,” regards Reid of the riders in attendance.
The Rock Mountain Jamboree hosts around 60 rides throughout the event. Each ride varies in difficulty and terrain. The rides range from easy dirt roads in the Paiute trail system for beginners to steep and rough terrain that is better suited for advanced riders. Each ride is staffed with guides that not only show you the trail, but are also very knowledgeable about the history of the area.
“We have around 300 volunteers that make this event possible. They guide and ride follow up on the trails and really make the event possible,” said Reid.
