Trail Overview

BLM SV2636 travels over fine, loose sand that can become more difficult when wet as the route heads toward the surrounding hills. Frequent rock gardens contain 3–9-inch rocks, while ruts reach 6–8 inches deep. Several rock ledges throughout the trail are approximately 6–8 inches tall. Around 0.7 miles, campsites begin appearing along the route, offering level ground, scenic views, and room for up to four vehicles each. The trail ends at a level hilltop campsite accommodating up to four vehicles with expansive views across the surrounding valley and hills.

Difficulty

This trail is rated Level 2 because of its loose sandy surface, 6–8-inch ruts, frequent 3–9-inch rock gardens, and 6–8-inch ledges. The obstacles require careful driving but remain relatively mild.

History

The BLM lands around Sawtooth Canyon reflect the long history of California’s Mojave Desert, where Indigenous peoples traveled and lived for thousands of years before miners, ranchers, and settlers arrived in the 1800s. The surrounding desert also contains remnants of the region’s mining and homesteading era, while its rugged volcanic rock formations preserve a much older geologic history.
