| Trail Description |
Short but fun trail. Very easy ride with lots of Joshua trees, lots of cactus and creosote bush. The campground does not allow horses at this time, but the camping is under shade shelters, so not for summer. Most of the time we ride the perimeter of the park, just outside the main fence and along about 10 miles of dirt roads. Then go in the access gates and water by the state maintenance bldg. ( have an old bathtub and hand pump for horses.) Town is about 3 miles and has market, gas, burgers and Mexican restaurant. ( very good food!) Also a hardware store, and a sm. feed barn/fencing place. Access to Piute Buttes and open desert type riding for next 22 miles. |
