Trail Overview

Fairview View travels over fine, loose sand that can become more difficult when wet. Whoops reach 12–20 inches tall but are relatively easy to navigate. Around 0.8 miles, a steep hill climb makes 4WD or AWD highly recommended. The route provides continuous views of Fairview Mountain and the surrounding rock formations. Around 0.1 miles, a large, level campsite on the left accommodates up to 12 vehicles with excellent views of the valley, desert, and nearby rock formations. Numerous additional level campsites with scenic views are available throughout the trail.

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.
