Basin Road is an easy, graded road that provides access to the Rasor Off-Highway Vehicle Area and runs along the western boundary of the open riding area. The surrounding landscape offers abundant rolling hills, open valleys, and sand dunes that invite any type of rider willing to traverse the rugged terrain. The road travels between Interstate 15 and the Mojave Road, ending at the north end of Afton Canyon. Most of the road is hardpacked, but the farther south you travel, the more sand you will encounter. Large RVs and travel trailers should only travel the eastern side of the lollipop and remain on the 8712 road. The western portion of the lollipop, roads 8711 and 8713, have the softest sand and could easily trap a heavy vehicle. Along the northern half of the road, you will find many large camping and OHV staging areas suitable for any type of camp setup and any group size.
