Explore the famous and historic Bradshaw Trail in Southern California with us, an 80 mile overland-style journey through some gorgeous landscapes. We'll check out some historic sites, explore the Chuckwalla Mountains, and drive through the amazing Red Canyon.
Please note this is an Offroad Passport Club members-only event.
THE JOURNEY
- 3 days, 2 nights
- Overall mileage is 104 miles
- Our trip will take us from Blythe, CA to Chiraco Summit, CA
- We will take a range of roads that span the spectrum of surface types, including pavement, gravel, soft and deep sand, and rock
TRAIL INFORMATION
- Difficulty Rating: Easy
-
Trail Condition Concerns:
- Deep soft sand (chief concern)
- Washboards & Washouts
- Steep moderate climb out of Red Canyon - possible off-camber
- Possible UXO (unexploded ordinance) south of the main Bradshaw Trail - that is the Chocolate Mountain gunnery range. Any metal object found in the dirt in that area should be assumed to be explosive.
