Trail Overview
Carnage Canyon or Carnage BV is a renowned extreme off-road trail that presents a series of formidable obstacles, each testing the limits of both vehicle and driver. It tightens quickly as it climbs the dry creek bed, forcing drivers into a wet and muddy waterfall that demands speed and traction to conquer, then punishes the unwary with the notorious V-Notch, a twisting, narrow crack primed to roll you if your tires bite wrong. From there, you battle through towering boulders and crumbling rock shelves, where creative lines and frequent spotting are essential, before reaching the Exit, a steep, near-vertical climb that often needs a winch to conquer.

Difficulty
There is typically water at the bottom of the Waterfall, which makes this climb far more challenging and leads directly into a difficult V-notch where body damage is likely. The Exit obstacle is a steep, loose climb littered with sizable rocks.
