Climbing and Traversing Hills

Review the pages When Climbing a Hill and Traversing a Slope to be prepared if you stall or start to tip over.

• Accelerate at the base of the hill.
• Downshift if necessary to maintain momentum.
• Turn your ATV to the left, making an arc over the face of the hill.
• Continue to turn until you’re headed back down the hill.
• Shift into a lower gear, and apply your brakes to slow down.
• Repeat in the opposite direction.
