Trail Overview
Located within the confines of Holloman Air Force Base just before La Luz Gate, this small section of OHV winds through a small slice of the desert that encompasses the base. While it is mostly long dirt roads in which higher speeds can be enjoyed, there are also a few small technical sections that require slowing down to traverse. There are signs along the road marking the OHV area, some rest areas, and areas that are very clearly marked to avoid. Some signs also signify a "loop", but the loop has since been closed off, so it becomes more of an out-and-back. While not incredibly large, this is a nice spot for those who live on base and want an area they could drive their OHV to, or for those who work on base and want to blow off some steam after work.

Difficulty
The road itself is fairly smooth in dry conditions with a few sections up rutted hills. When wet, this area would most likely become very difficult to traverse, with lots of mud and loose sand.
