Trail Overview

Tracking Station Road is a nice short road off Mountain Loop Road going back to Sand Flats Recreation Area. Towards the Mountain Loop Road's end, there are several primitive campsite spots. The road gets a bit rougher near Sand Flats Road where 4WD may be necessary. The drive towards Sand Flats in the late afternoon at sunset can be stunning with beautiful views.

Difficulty

This is mostly an easy road until you get closer to Sand Flats Road. Then it becomes a bit more rocky with some limited 12-inch+ drops over some rocks.

Drove this starting from Sand Flats Rd in a stock but armored 4Runner. There is a pretty nasty hill climb with rock steps at the beginning of the trail, and the rest of the trail is deeply rutted/rough from all the side by sides zooming down it!
