Northern Foothills of the Mohave Mountains

Discover the beauty and adventure of 4359, a backcountry 4WD road offering fantastic views of the valley floor from the northeast foothills of the Mohave Mountain Range. Follow the road as it climbs from 4345 to the foothills of the Mohave Mountains before winding down towards the Stagecoach Trails subdivision, offering several overlooks with panoramic vistas of the surrounding mountains. The northern side of the range is surprisingly cooler in the summer shoulder months, giving a slight reprieve from the heat. During late winter and early spring, it seems as though everything has a flower in bloom, with short green grass growing anywhere without a rock, all adding to the scenic beauty. 

Keep an eye out for prospectors on quads and UTVs searching for the next big gold strike in the active mining claims that run along the trail. Join a prospecting association or do your homework to get permission to hunt on their claims. The Havasu Gold Seekers is an active club with many claims in the area. Don't miss out on the opportunity to explore this beautiful desert landscape with knowledgeable people who share a passion for prospecting and adventure. .
