Located in the Newberry/Rodman BLM subregion, Troy Road is a scenic offroad trail that traverses towering cliffs of ancient lava rock with shades of brown, gray, and black contrasting against stretches of white sand. Eventually, the trail opens into sweeping desert views. Sometimes referred to as Kane Wash on its north end, this trail winds through high canyon walls and vast desert landscapes, offering remote, dispersed camping, long sand washes, and an easy, sometimes bumpy ride. The trail is nearly 12 miles straight through and consists of a mix of easy dirt and small but sharp rocks along the southern half, and coarse, soft sand along the northern end. There are many offshoots along this trail that provide endless opportunities for exploration. The best camping is located at the halfway point, directly in the middle of the mountain range.
