Frank Raines OHV is located not far from Patterson, CA. It is open to 4x4s from sunrise to sunset with a $5 admission fee per vehicle. The park is open to all OHV vehicles, so be sure to watch out for dirtbikes, quads, and SXS.

West Trail is a challenging track, rated a black diamond by the park's rating system. The trail is very steep and is essentially one long hill with large ruts and a few turns. The dirt is loose, causing traction issues. The trail can be descended by a stock 4x4, but to climb up the trail, you will need a lightly modified vehicle. Lockers and airing down are very helpful when trying to ascend. There is a high risk of pinstriping on this trail, as it seems to be mainly frequented by dirtbikes nowadays, causing it to become overgrown.

Deer Creek Campground is located at the park's entrance. The campground has 34 sites with picnic tables, restrooms, and other amenities. Prices range from $15 to $30 per site.
