Located within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Montana Wash Road is an easy, dead-end gravel trail that follows along a dry wash to Morning Star Cove along the Colorado River. The road surface is generally coarse sand with shallow tire ruts and occasional washboards. Like other trails in the area, you will be rewarded with open desert views, lake views, and views of Fire Mountain along this trail. However, views at the end of this trail are absolutely fantastic along the cove, with several hiking opportunities up and down the river. The trail ends at a very large cove with two great dispersed campsites. If you have friends with a boat, this would be a perfect cove to meet them at. There are no amenities for these campsites and users must pack out everything they pack in, including human waste.
This trail is suitable for any high clearance vehicle and can easily be completed in 2WD.
