The vastness and remoteness of the desert are on full display on this trail, with only sand and creosote bush as far as you can see. This often deep, sandy trail passes between the distant Stepladder and Old Woman's Mountains Wilderness. At its lowest point, the road crosses Danby Lake, a crusted-over dry lake bed in the summer. Dispersed camping can be done along the way, following the BLM Needles Field Office camping guidelines. An easy trail, but the deep, soft sand requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
Please note that the southern end runs into private property, and you must backtrack to the intersection with Cadiz Road to exit.
