Trail Overview

This is a fun trail from the south end of Pahrump out to Prairie Fire, formerly known as Front Sight Road. From Front Sight Rd you can go right and head towards Prairie Fire, head left towards Tecopa Highway, or go straight across the road to Cathedral Canyon. This is mostly an easy desert trail with a few rutted areas, several small washes that can be day-ruiners if you are running too fast, and a ton of off-shooting trails into the desert wonderland. There are bypasses for anything too technical.

Very little dust and some fun mud to get through. Easy, quick run.
