Trail Overview

Rutted and dusty, but easy in any stock SUV or Pickup. Great ride on an adventure bike to get your feet wet while you warm up for some of the more challenging trails around. This 1.9-mile road will have you climb 565 feet from US HWY 40 to the top of Red Mountain, where a beautiful view and a nice flat spot for camping exists (just a couple of hundred feet away from the peak). Camping here won't be quiet or private, but it is possible. Watch for ATVs and SxS while out here. The road is mostly dirt, with some exposed, loose, or crumbling rock. Stock SUVs and trucks will be fine, as will most adventure bikes and dirtbikes.
