Trail Information

Highlights

For those that run the Mojave Road and still want more, here it is. From the end of the Mojave Road, you can cut south on this trail, continue south on AC9476 and run Hidden Valley Wash out to Broadwell Dry Lake. AC9475 is part of a network of trails near the base of the Cady Mountains, east of the small desert community of Newberry Springs, California. This scenic off-road trail includes surrounding hills of dark ancient lava covered with contrasting white sand, distant desert mountain horizons and deep sandy washes.

There might be a lot of confusion lately with the San Bernardino National Forest order ( No. 05-12-00-23-03 ) closing almost all forest trails in southern California. This trail is still open.

We strung several trails together starting with AC9475 to ultimately get to Cucero Rd. and then further into the Mojave to camp and watch the Perseid meteor shower. We went in the opposite direction of the TOR review. For us the trail started right off the 15 and was an easy flat road that quickly leads you west and away from civilization. We saw some fire rings along the way where others camped.

Fun, easy trail in a network of lightly traveled desert roads. I rarely see other traffic out here other then those running the Mojave Road.
