Trail Overview
Tres Burros is an interesting trail and was a pleasure to map! This trail was run from South to North. The South end of the trail sports a large turnaround and campsite that can support a few vehicles of varying sizes. The surrounding area seems to be a spot where wild burros hang out, as there is vegetation and several small hills and cover for them to bask in/under. As you proceed North, there are several large campsites along the rim that provide a great view into the valley below. The proximity of this area to the Arrastra Mountain Wilderness to the North, as well as Alamo Lake to the West, make it a desired location to camp out. There are no obstacles along this road. The road is gravel and appears to be in good order, though it's not clear if it's regularly graded. There are 2 bars of Verizon service along this road, but if you're in the area exploring, that coverage falls off quickly, so you'd be wise to have offline maps downloaded.
