Starting to the west is Moore Road, a maintained dirt and gravel road running across the open West Desert just north of the Weiss Highway. Enjoy the expansive views before turning north and heading to the divide between the Sheeprock and West Tintic Mountains. As the trail heads north, the road's name changes to Cherry Creek Road, where its northern terminus drops you off near Silver City and Eureka, a once-bustling regional mining hub. This road is part of the grander network known as the Prospector Trail System, an exploration of the mining activity that occurred in the West Desert of Utah. Camping is not found along this route, but many spur trails offer a place to pitch a tent.
