Ss1061a

Trail Sa1061a is an out-and-back wash route that crosses Artesia Road and follows a sandy gravel channel. The wash is overgrown in places with large dead trees, along with creosote and cholla lining the route. Because the trail zigzags through the wash, it’s easy to lose the line — follow your map closely. Expect heavy pinstripe potential and consider rolling up your windows to avoid contact with branches. In dry conditions, the route is generally easy, but conditions can change quickly. Possible washouts and flash flood risk after storms. Otherwise, this trail is straightforward. Take your time and stay on the mapped track
