Horse Riding and Camping
To help reduce invasive species on national forest lands the U.S. Forest Service requires the use of weed-free feed within the Pacific Northwest. This includes the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument.
Weed-free feed includes commercially processed pellets, steamed and rolled grains, or state certified weed-free feed. More information on weed-free feed.
