BLM 078 North

This trail now starts officially south of the new private property lines and crosses a sandy, open desert that is relatively flat. The landscape is barren for the first mile, then some desert bushes start popping up, and the trail becomes one vehicle wide as vegetation increases. You'll encounter some ruts, washboards, and whoops scattered throughout. There are a few washes you have to go in and out of, and some are very deep and may be a challenge for some vehicles. Some ruts are up to 18 inches deep, creating serious vertical obstacles. At mile 2.5 and 3.0, the trail drops into a very deep wash and climbs out the other side, presenting significant technical challenges at these crossings.
