Appaloosa Way is a sandy, flat, up and back trail that follows the western border of the Hollow Hills Wilderness to arrive at the Silver Lake Talc mine. The mine last saw action in the mid-1950s and now lays abandoned with its rotting wooden structures yet still has piles of white talc ready for loading. Camping is allowed anywhere along the trail when following the BLM Barstow Field Office guidelines.
