Tamarisk Road runs through Lake Mead National Recreation Area. This area is a limited-use area, and camping is only allowed in approved areas, offroad use is not allowed unless on a designated route. It is an easy road but can be loose sand in sections, 4x4 is recommended, in the rainy season this area is prone to flash floods. Beautiful view of the water at the end of this road with a small area for camping at the end.

Sandy in sections, the possibility for water crossing and mud. Advised not to do this road in bad weather, as you can find yourself in a flash flood.
