Abstract	This study identifies contemporary research in the field of recreation ecology focusing on ecological impacts of mountain biking and establishing best management practices for sustainable trail development and management. A site analysis at Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest (BMDSF) takes existing knowledge and research on sustainable trail development and applies those lessons through geographic information systems (GIS) analysis and on-site trail observations. This research is timely as trails are being planned and re-built after a catastrophic fire in 2015. GIS analysis can help identify limitations of the site and guide management recommendations.
