I have and it is great place to ride. Best to plan for a late July or early August time frame because of the snow pack(I've seen it snow before on July 4 up there). Maps are available for the area and would be a good investment. I usually enter from the south along Hwy 212. There are also easy access trails that start in the park and go into the wilderness area, because of the fire in 88 once out of the park some trails are impassable. Areas close to small towns( Gardiner, Cook City, Red Lodge, Big Timber, Livington) have alot of 4-wheeler trails that you may or may not want to use. Also beware of wolves and grizzilies in the area. The map file is the map I use. Cook City file is the area I usually visit.
