Anyone know who wide the opening is on the dam, I know a rhino at 59 inches fits not sure if the new xp at 64 inches wide or the rzr s at 60 will?? Thinking about upgrading from my current ride.

It will fit. My teryx with off set wheels fits easy.

There's lots of room. My wife's Ranger with offset rims fits with no problems.

The Bighorn Backcountry Brouchure defines an ohv as such:
* a curb weight of 1300 lbs or less
* tire pressure of 16 lbs or less
*wheelbase of 73 inches or less
*width of 70 inches or less

it would stand to reason that that gate should be 70 inches but I highly doubt it. Sure never looks that wide when I drive through it. Based on that definition, if they ever enforced it, there would be a lot of side x sides parked.
I did notice this past summer that they put some big boulders on the south side of the dam blocking the trail that came up on the south side. If you can't fit through the gate you won't be riding in that area.

Remember when we took Bruce`s rzr with the offsets +spacers thru....?
That S had to be close to 70 inchs wide....lol

A xp 900 is gonna be 67" or so with the stock rims and 12 inch tires....

Ok I've been trying to figure out where this famed big horn is. From what Google told me it's out by The Clearwater and Rig Street Road. Or am i way off?
