Trail Overview

This is a fun, easy trail with fantastic views of the surrounding area. On the Diamond Valley side you will have views of cinder cones, a dormant volcano with crater, hundreds of square miles to the west. Lone Pine Canyon has an oddity with a dead tall single pine with the backdrop of white mountain valley. If the sun is right it is beautiful. THe Cottonwood side will give you views down on Sand Hollow Reservoir, Sand Mountain, and the area to the east and southeast.

Difficulty

This route is primarily a road that is partially and sporadically maintained by grader. The only issue is there are larger rocks that remain embedded and they can surprise you if you are going a little fast. This is a great route for a new or inexperienced operator to get to know their vehicle. Watch your speed in Diamond Valley, speed traps.

Great trail. Some places can get really muddy if it rains. Just be careful not to get stuck

Nice Road. Some very small rocks. Beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. We even got a rainbow. Rating two is correct.

We took this trail to Diamond Valley Lone Pine Cottonwood Loop. Once there it was amazing, the beauty of the area. We saw no wildlife and plenty of places to pull off for lunch.

I did this on a stock NON 4x4 2016 Nissan rogue. I decided to do it just because it had an easy lvl of 2 from ONX. It gets very bumpy. At times I thought it wouldn’t make it because riding a STOCK rogue with no 4x4 but the AWD drive did great to get though it. Just take it nice and slow and read the trail. We started from the top to bottom (started at diamond valley). Did it when there was no snow or it hasn’t rained in the past weeks. If there was snow or rain it may have been a little different story.
