In an effort to raise money to help support outdoor recreation issues, more than 50 companies have donated at least 150 products to the nonprofit organization Tread Lightly! for its Fourth Annual Charity Auction on eBay, November 1-11. 

This year’s big-ticket items include a Grizzly 550 ATV from Yamaha and a Gator XUV 625i utility vehicle from John Deere.

The auction also includes plenty of powersports equipment, 4×4 accessories and outdoor gear. Bids will start at 40 to 60 percent off of retail prices, said the nonprofit.
