Trail Overview

This trail starts in the Spring Mountains Recreational Area and ends in the Red Rock National Conservation Area managed by the BLM. The area within the BLM boundaries is known as the Harris Springs Recreation Area. The main purpose of this trail is to provide access to the Prospect Springs Road as well as the Harris Springs main road. There are no camping spots along the road, and the trail is prone to flash floods, although it is graded. At the end of Harris Springs Road, you can camp. There is a gate right where BLM land begins, it was open when I passed.

Difficulty

This is rated as a two due to sections in which it is only passable by one vehicle at a time given that the dirt road boundaries are too high. AWD and 4WD should be fine, but 2WD might need to use momentum in the gravel areas if going uphill.
