This short, forgotten trail provides a quiet retreat to camp or hang out and enjoy the solitude of the Mojave Desert basin. The Red Butte's triple peaks are visible to the east, providing a comforting landmark.
The desert terrain here is flat and sandy, providing several good campsites when meeting the BLM Camping Guidelines.
During the fire season or windy conditions, campfires may be restricted, and if planning to camp, one should review the current BLM Campfire Restrictions.
The trail surroundings are designated Limited Use Areas, requiring vehicles to stay on the trails.
EM2720 is an easy, flat, sandy trail requiring only a high clearance two-wheel drive vehicle.
