The Amargosa Big Dune covers about five square miles (3,200 acres) in Southern Nye County, about 29 miles south of Beatty on U.S. 95. Dispersed camping is allowed, no ADA accessibility. Firm sand dunes provide good riding, paddle or sand tires recommended for best experience, but not required.

Sensitive Species:

The Big Dune Beetle is listed as a sensitive species and the BLM has posted signs identifying the Big Dune Beetle habitat area. The beetle was proposed for listing as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act in 1978 and the entire Big Dune Complex was proposed as critical habitat for the species. Off-road vehicle use was identified as the largest threat to the species at the time.

Please do your part to keep Amargosa Dunes open by staying out of this area and on the designated trails in the area.

Plants and the dune itself are very important for survival of these rare beetle species. All four Big Dune beetle species rely on dune plants for survival. The plants provide food and mating sites and, when covered with sand, shelter and food for their larvae.

The entire dune is protected as a BLM designated Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC). Within the ACEC, a five-acre area on the east side of the dunes has been set aside specifically for protection of these species. More information on the ACEC.

South of Amargosa is the Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. Only street-legal, licensed vehicles are permitted within the refuge boundary.

Directions

From North Las Vegas, head north approximately 95 miles to Valley View Blvd. Turn left at sign for Big Dune. Dunes and staging are about 5 miles on right. A Secondary staging on West side of dune exists from next left turn – look for Big Dune sign.

From Beatty, travel 29 miles south on Hwy 95 and look for Big Dune signs on your right.

Discover

The OHV trail system in the Austin and Toiyabe Range area centers around the historic City of Austin. This trail system is generally multi-use and caters to OHV, Equestrian, Mountain bike, and Pedestrian actvities, so riders should be prepared to meet a variety of trail users on their ride. The trail system takes riders through a variety of terrain, and generally follow existing two-track roads. Most trails in the area are suitable for a full size 4wd. Expect OHV users to encounter exposed rocky trails, stream crossings, and significant elevation change.

Trails climb from basin sagebrush through aspen groves and into high elevation environments. Heading south towards Big Creek Campground, users will find numerous streams popular for trout fishing. Historic mining activity is also evident in the area, and the Stokes Castle just south of Austin is a popular stop. The entire Toiyabe Range has vistas and attractions for all types of recreation, but it is remote. Go prepared, and stage out of many available USFS Campgrounds listed below.

For a longer day-trip, travel up over the mountains and into the adjacent valley to the East. This route takes you through the community of Kingston and provides options to explore Toquima Cave and Spencer Hot Springs are available. During the wet season, the road to both attractions is graded dirt and turns to slick mud when wet.

Directions

From Austin Nevada, on U.S. Hwy 50, trails exist in the mountains south of town. Options to join the trail system are also available from Bob Scott Campground, 6 miles east of Austin, or at Big Creek Campground to the south.

LICENSED VEHICLES ONLY. All of the Byway is paved in California and improved gravel roads in Nevada. The Nevada segments can be driven by all types of vehicles when the route is dry, but may require high-clearance vehicles during wet seasons. Please stop by the Surprise Field Office in Cedarville for current road conditions.

From prehistoric stories to revisiting the Old West, this Back Country Byway Loop reveals some of the secrets of the Great Basin Desert. This distinctive 93-mile driving tour takes the traveler through a wide variety of natural settings and points of interest. The Byway forms a loop that begins and ends in Cedarville, California and takes a minimum of three hours without stops. But travelers will be tempted to stop, particularly if they are using the 32-page BLM Byway Tour Guide which tells the historic and prehistoric stories of the Surprise Valley, points out the myriad of attractions in the state line mountains (from fossils and a pictograph site to wildlife) and reveals some of the secrets here in the silent Great Basin dessert. Be sure to take your camera, especially if you’re crossing the highway causeway across Surprise Valley’s Middle Lake at sunset.

For further information contact the Bureau of Land Management’s Surprise Field Station in Cedarville at (530) 279-6101.

Discover

Basin and Range National Monument was created by Presidential Proclamation on July 10, 2015 and covers 704,000 acres in Lincoln and Nye Counties. The area is one of the best examples of the spectacular basins framed by rugged mountain ranges of Nevada, and includes historic Native American petroglyphs and artifacts, unique plants and animals, and opportunities to enjoy space and solitude.

The area is located between the Mojave Desert and the Sagebrush Steppe of the Great Basin. Major features of the national monument include Garden Valley, Coal Valley, Worthington Mountains and Wilderness Area, Hiko and White River Narrows, and the Shooting Gallery rock art site. Another point of interest is Michael Heizer’s “City”, a massive piece of earth art.

The Monument allows motor vehicle use on existing roads. Some roadways are passable by passenger vehicles, but high-clearance, 4-wheel drive vehicles are recommended due to rugged and changing conditions on many routes. There is no entrance fee to access the Monument lands, and dispersed camping is allowed for a maximum 14-day stay. See maps for unimproved campsite locations.

Directions

Closest towns to Basin and Range National Monument are Ely to the north, Caliente to the east, and Alamo to the south. All three towns are located on US Highway 93.

Just north of Alamo, where Highway 93 turns east, State Route 318 branches off and cuts straight north toward Ely. State Route 318 runs along and through the eastern edge of the monument and provides access to several petroglyph sites, including White River Narrows and Mount Irish Archaeological Districts.

The Shooting Gallery rock art area is accessed west of Highway 93 near the town of Alamo. By driving up the west side of the monument along State Route 375 toward Rachel, visitors can reach high elevations of the Worthington Mountains Wilderness.

The remains of prehistoric Lake Lahontan and its surrounding mountains are what now make up the Black Rock Desert. The Black Rock-High Rock Emigrant Trails National Conservation area covers about 800,000 acres in Northwestern Nevada and offers countless recreational opportunities. Famous for events such as the 1997 setting of the land speed record (763 mph!) and the week-long Burning Man Festival that attracts thousands of visitors annually. Visitors interested in off-highway vehicle recreation will be welcomed by hundreds of miles of trail networks that include the historic Applegate Trail, as well as a vast open playa with endless opportunities. Road services vary as you travel from the hard-packed playa to the softer soil of its outer edges, and transitions to exposed rocky conditions once you venture up into the canyonlands.

You can explore this massive piece of land by travelling along some of the 120 miles of historic emigrant trails or riding across the world-famous playa. The Black Rock Desert has an adventure for everyone! Recreational opportunities in the area include hiking, hunting, rock-hounding, hot tubbing, and stargazing.

Test your speed on the world famous Black Rock Desert Playa that is 400 square miles large, drive along the Applegate National Historic Trail, try a technical drive through the High Rock Canyon, or discover some of the areas hidden hot springs.

Dispersed camping is available throughout much of the Black Rock Desert unless otherwise posted. Primitive camping is available within the Soldier Meadows Hot Spring Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) which includes a cabin and vault-toilets. To the north, Soldier Meadow Ranch is a private campground that provides lodging and meals for a fee.

Caution!! During wet seasons the playa, and some of the surrounding areas, can become impassable to motor vehicles. While the playa may appear dry, there may be deep mud just below the surface. It is important to note that OHV use is not allowed on the dunes and hummocks surrounding the playa. Traveling in groups is always a good idea, as well as informing someone of where you will be going due to the remote nature of the conservation area.

The Buffalo Hills are located in northwestern Washoe County just west of the Black Rock Desert. Here you can ascend rocky slopes dotted by juniper into large flat plains of sage-brush and occasional stands of mesquite where deer like to hide. Be warned, though some of the trails are flat and smooth sailing, many of the routes in and out of the Wilderness Study Area are comprised of long stretches of exposed rock. Other recreational opportunities exist here such as hunting, horseback riding, hiking and camping.

This system of trails provides access to a number of interesting scenic vistas. Several large dirt pullouts can be found on the South and North side of the creek. Twin Peaks (North) can be accessed via the trails leading West from Buffalo Creek. Much of the area is managed by the Bureau of Land Management, although there are individual parcels in and around the area. There are extensive trail systems and campsites throughout the range. Trails branch from the creek to nearby trails both in the Black Rock Desert and the Squaw Creek Reservoir area.

There are multiple ranches and farms in the area, as well as permitted livestock grazing on public land. Please respect these land managers by staying on designated trails and roads, and leaving any gates as you found them. Almost the entirety of the valley, and the surrounding mountains, are accessible for free public camping and other BLM permitted activities. All
routes in the valley are within 40 miles of Gerlach, which features a gas station, restaurants, and some shopping and other amenities.

Primitive camping can be found at Squaw Creek Reservoir free of charge, be sure to follow the rules as it is on private land and access can be revoked at the discretion of the owner. Dispersed camping is available throughout the area be sure to check BLM regulations before heading out.

    A popular network of trails connecting Cold Creek to Indian Springs.

    On the Western side of the parking area, multiple kiosks and a historic site can be seen. Additional directional signage is sparse, and unofficial trails frequently intersect the designated routes. Looking North while traveling towards Indian Springs, visitors can often see aircraft from the nearby Creech Air Force Base. From the Northern end of the loop, it is possible to follow utility roads into the town of Indian Springs.

    Heading from Indian Springs South towards Cold Creek, the visitor can see a great length of the Spring Mountains. Multiple peaks, such as Bonanza Peak and McFarland Peak, loom over the town of Cold Creek. Camping is available near these peaks, in the Willow Springs area.

    The trail crosses and abuts multiple land managers, including the Bureau of Land Management, National Forest Service, and various public and private properties. Please respect these land managers by staying on designated trails and roads. Much of the loop is accessible for free public camping and other BLM/USFS permitted activities. All routes on the Mesa are within 23 miles of Indian Springs, which features limited shopping and fuel services.

    GEOLOGY OF COLD CREEK AREA

    The Spring Mountains of southern Nevada act as an amazing backdrop to the communities of Clark County and provide an exceptional view into the past. Geologists started studying
    these mountains back in 1875 and are still actively conducting research in the surrounding area today. The Spring Mountains are approximately 45 miles in length, trend Northwest-Southeast, and are a part of the Basin and Range. The rocks that make up the stunning peaks are from the Paleozoic era (approx. 542 million to 251 million years old!).

    While riding around, try to imagine the landscape you see in front of you completely underwater. Where you are standing used to be an ancient ocean! Millions of years of tectonic activity, uplift, and erosion helped form not only the Spring Mountains but also the accordion-like parallel mountain ranges Nevada is known for. If you look closely and have the right light, then you may be able to see the tilted, bent, and overturned layers of limestone that tell the story of a much different Southern Nevada in the peaks.

    Directions

    The trail head can easily be found at the corner of Cold Creek Road and Shootingstar Road in the town of Cold Creek. From North Las Vegas, travel north on Highway 95 approximately 20 miles to Cold Creek Road. Turn west and go 13 miles to Shootingstar Road, just past the Fire Station.

    Wildlife and Livestock:

    Wild Horses, burros, and cattle can be encountered in the Dry Valley area at any time of year. Please observe all wildlife from a safe distance. Do not feed wildlife, as this habituates wildlife to humans and alters natural behaviors. Remember to close all gates after passing through.

    Please do your part to keep Dry Valley open by staying on the designated trails in the area.

    Remember to go over, not around, obstacles on designated routes to avoid unnecessarily widening the trail. Trails often run alongside private properties and utilities.

    The entire valley is managed by the Bureau of Land Management. Please refer to the BLM website and other materials listed below.

    Directions

    To reach the Dry Valley OHV area from Susanville, California take State Route 36 south to the stoplight at the junction of U.S. Highway 395, turn left and continue on U.S. 395 North about 15 miles to Wendel Road and turn right.

      • Flat Top Mesa KMZ
      • Georeferenced Avenza Maps

      Discover

      A popular network of trails easily accessed from Mesquite surface streets.

      An informational kiosk with a map of the trail can be found, along with a large dirt pullout. Additional directional signage is currently in the process of being installed by local volunteer groups. After scaling the side of the Mesa, visitors can see a wide panorama of the towns of Mesquite, Nevada, and Scenic, Arizona. Behind these townships, visitors can see Virgin Peak and much of the Virgin River. Scenic vistas along the Western rim provide views of Toquop Wash, Mormon Mesa, and Mormon Mountain beyond.

      In the past, Flat Top Mesa could also be accessed via Toquop Wash Road, on the Southern side of the Mesa. Unfortunately, heavy erosion over the past two years has made the climb out of Toquop Wash onto the mesa extremely difficult. Proposals are currently being reviewed for the restoration of this access route.

      Several areas to the North, South, and East of the Mesa abut private property, Nevada Department of Motor Vehicle right-of-ways, and utility company property. Please respect these
      land managers by staying on designated trails and roads. The entire mesa, and the wilderness north of the Mesa, are accessible for free public camping and other BLM permitted activities. All routes on the Mesa are within 13 miles of Mesquite, which features shopping, fuel, hospital, vehicle maintenance, and other services.

      GEOLOGY OF FLAT TOP MESA

      Mesquite, Nevada, lies on the transition zone of two of the most interesting geologic provinces in the United States. The Basin and Range lies to the west characterized by its
      never-ending North trending parallel mountain ranges, while the Colorado Plateau lies to the East with its famous red sandstone. Looking at the road cut along the I-15 traveling along the Virgin River Gorge gives us as extensive look back through time to layers of ancient shallow sea floor. As you travel North, you are moving forward through time and towards a terrestrial depositional environment.

      Flat Top Mesa lies just outside of the Virgin Gorge to the East and is part of the Muddy Creek Formation. Its creation was most likely initiated by an ancestral river 3-5 million years ago, much like Mormon Mesa to its Southeast. The Muddy Creek Formation (23.03 to 5.333 Ma) is composed of a suite of sedimentary rocks, clays, and silts whose unique sequencing has been documented in Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. Fossils from the late Miocene (11.63-5.333 Ma) have been found in the Muddy Creek Formation and help paint a broader picture of the environment, flora, and fauna from times past.

      Directions

      The Mesa can be accessed from the West side of Mesquite, at the northern terminus of Ben Franklin Way.

      Genoa Peak and Indian Hills is a popular area for OHV and all kinds of recreational activities in warmer weather months. The eastern shore of the lake is less developed and offers weeping views of Lake Tahoe to the western and the Carson Valley to the east. This riding area has trails suitable for motorcycles, dirt bikes, ATVs, and UTVs. The main trail is 9.3 miles in length and is perfect for a day trip.

      The road can be accessed from the staging area on Genoa Park Road. If you continue north, the trails will continue into the South Camp Peak Trail system which mainly consist of old fire and service roads. Some roads in the Genoa Peak area terminate in private property. Be mindful of where you ride. There is a high recreational diversity at Genoa peak, including but not limited to hiking and biking. Be sure to check out the Tahoe Rim Trail and surrounding wilderness areas such as Desolation, Granite Chief, and Mt. Rose.

      This popular and well-used riding area also offers amazing views of Lake Tahoe. Contrary to popular belief, the Lake Tahoe Basin was formed by systematic normal faulting and not by a collapsed volcano. This kind of faulting is seen all over Nevada and is characteristic of The Basin and Range geologic province. 2-million-year-old eruptions from extinct Mount Pluto
      acted as a dam, trapped snow melt in the basin, and eventually created the lake we see today!

      Subsequent formation of thick ice and glaciers in the Sierra Nevada during the Ice Age (820,000-13,000 years ago) gouged out the many beautiful bays and inlets of Lake Tahoe and created many of the glacial U-Shaped valleys that east side of the Sierras are known for.

      Directions

      ​To the Genoa Peak Trailhead, from Carson City/North:

      1. Drive south on Highway 395 for 13 miles

The last 19 miles of the byway should only be traveled by high-clearance vehicles. Primitive camping and hiking are available along the byway.

      Along the Byway, the first place you come to is campgrounds and a staging area for your OHV. Around the corner is the Whitney Pockets, a wall of sandstone decorated with various size pockets. Also in this area are ancient petroglyphs, and a historic dam built by the Civilian Conservation Corps. As you venture further you will come across a 110-ft. sink hole called The Devil’s Throat. From here you can continue to Little Finland where you will find amazing windswept rock formations as well as ancient petroglyphs. Another point of interest is the historic town site of Gold Butte where you can find building foundations, gravesites, and old mining shafts.

      The Granite Mountain Range dominates the surrounding landscape northwest of Gerlach, Nevada and bordering the Black Rock Desert. Due to the steepness of its eastern slope, ascents from the west are much more manageable. Starting in dry desert scrub, trails climb into juniper and sage-brush country where herds of deer and antelope can be found taking shelter from the heat found at lower elevations during the summer. Be wary, for some trails are much more difficult to traverse than others and a narrow width, high clearance vehicle may be necessary to reach the trails along its ridgeline. Other recreational opportunities include mountain climbing, hunting, and fishing at nearby Squaw Creek Reservoir.

      Primitive camping can be found at Squaw Creek Reservoir free of charge, be sure to follow the rules as it is on private land and access can be revoked at the discretion of the owner.

      The OHV trail system in the Austin and Toiyabe Range area covers several mountain ranges stretching North to South. This trail system is generally multi-use and caters to OHV, Equestrian, Mountain bike, and Pedestrian activities, so riders should be prepared to meet a variety of trail users on their rides. The numerous trails in the area can take riders through a variety of terrain along existing two-track roads. Most trails in the area are suitable for a full size 4wd. Expect OHV users to encounter exposed rocky trails, stream crossings, and significant elevation change.

      Trails climb from basin sagebrush through aspen groves and into high elevation environments. The range contains numerous opportunities for primitive camping, fishing and other outdoor recreation. There are a number of historic mining sites and settlements in these mountains. Go prepared, and stage out of many available USFS Campgrounds listed below.

      Rides in the Toiyabe range are varied, and can be extended for any length of visit. During the fall and winter, road conditions can become slick and muddy, and deep snow and ice are possible. Seasonal creeks can erupt into flash floods during summer downpours. Remember to check the weather before planning a visit and always recreate responsibly.

      Directions

      From Austin Nevada, on U.S. Hwy 50, trails exist in the mountains south of town. Options to join the trail system are also available from Bob Scott Campground, 6 miles east of Austin, or at Big Creek Campground to the south, among other locations.

      From Tonopah Nevada, on U.S. Hwy 95, trails can be found in the mountains north of town. Trailheads can be found in the town of Belmont, Peavine Creek Campground, and numerous other locations.

        Nestled between the Black Rock Desert to the south and the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge to the north, Massacre Ranch Recreation Area is about as far from civilization one can get in northwestern Nevada. The Recreation Area sits in a unique desert setting with high rims and vistas and surrounded by willows, aspens, and meadows. Vast expanses of sage-brush steppes and valleys that seem to stretch on past the horizon provide a seemingly endless number of trails to be explored.

        The Massacre Rim has recently been designated as one of only 12 International Dark Sky Sanctuaries due its remoteness and the area provides excellent night-time astrophotography opportunities.

        While the nighttime stargazing is a great reason for visiting this area, there is still much to be said for exploration and solitude during the day time hours here as well. Other recreational opportunities include camping, hiking, and horseback riding. Iconic Nevadan wildlife such as sage-grouse, bighorn sheep, and pronghorn allow for excellent wildlife viewing during the day as well.

        Primitive camping at Massacre Ranch features a cabin that is available as a first come, first served for up to seven consecutive nights.

        An important landmark along the Old Spanish Trail, Mormon Mesa has been a crossroads for travelers for centuries.

        The Mesa can be accessed from the North and the West. From the West, visitors can select several dirt roads in Moapa Valley scaling the Western escarpment of the Mesa, providing impressive views of the surrounding Moapa Valley and the Red Rocks State Park on the horizon. The Mesa can also be accessed from Carp Elgin Road off the nearby I-15. This route starts the visitor on the flat plain atop the mesa. Many routes and loops are possible along both rims of the Mesa, providing impressive views of the Virgin River, Virgin Peak, Moapa Peak, and other scenery. The Southern tip of the Mesa also overlooks the ghost town of St. Thomas, and there is a marker near the center of the Mesa marking the site of the original Spanish Trail route.

        One of the more unusual vistas on the Mormon Mesa is a piece of land art named “Negative Space.” The artwork was constructed in 1969 by Michael Heizer. The installation consists of an impressive trench “interrupted” by the natural erosion of the Eastern escarpment of the Mesa. The installation is open to the public. More information can be found at http://www.moca-la.org/visit/double-negative.

        The entire mesa, and the wilderness north of the Mesa, are accessible for free public camping and other BLM permitted activities. All routes on the Mesa are within 18 miles of Moapa Valley, which features shopping, fuel, urgent care, and other services.

        GEOLOGY OF MORMON MESA

        Mormon Mesa is an assertive geographic feature on the map and in person. The flat mesa you see today was formed approximately 5-4 Million years ago due to erosion caused by the Virgin River to the east and the Muddy River to west. The southern portion of the mesa marks the confluence of the two river systems and eventually leads into Lake Mead. The Mesa itself is a relatively young feature compared to the surrounding mountains, like the Virgin Mountains which are visible off the eastern edge of the mesa, or the 150 million-year-old Aztec Sandstone of Valley of Fire State Park to the west.

        Mormon Mesa is a well-studied and documented area for scientific research, specifically soil science and what past environments of that region where like. The sheer sides of the mesa created by flowing water over millions of years allows scientists to see the different layers of soil and rock. From that and many other tests, they can deduce a relative order of geologic events and processes that occurred in the area.

        The Pine Forest Range, in northern Nevada’s arid Great Basin, is a rare and exceptional area of abundant streams and clear, cold subalpine lakes, amidst the sagebrush steppes of the lower elevations. Just north of the Black Rock Desert and east of Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge, this mountain range features four distinct subalpine lakes stocked with trout for anglers. Off-highway vehicle trails take visitors between the lakes while also traversing pristine meadows, rocky outcroppings, and scenic vistas. Notable wildlife in the area include antelope, mule deer, bighorn sheep, pika, chuckar, and mountain lions in addition to many raptorial and songbird species.

        Nestled in a cirque and fed by snowmelt and springs, these lakes are not only visually stunning but also possess an excellent trout fishery. The lakes are surrounded by a rare remnant population of white bark and limber pines; stands of quaking aspen and mountain mahogany are also found throughout the area. Fall brings a riot of color found in few other places in northern Nevada.

        Primitive campgrounds are found around each of the lakes nestled in groves of quaking aspens with hiking trails leading up into the surrounding pine forests.

        The spectacular scenery and vistas, combined with outstanding recreational opportunities, draw thousands of visitors annually. Despite being one of the most highly visited recreational areas in the region, the area still appears pristine. Day hiking, horseback riding, rock climbing, hunting, fishing, and camping are all popular in the area. Visitors enjoy a true primitive recreation experience, without trails or facilities. Even during peak visitation periods, solitude is easy to find in the rugged terrain.

        Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge is home to 572,896 acres of sage-brush steppe habitat set aside primarily for the preservation of American Pronghorn, the fastest land animal in North America capable of reaching speeds of up to 60mph. Due to its past and current relationship with commercial mining the refuge is still open to off-highway vehicles on designated roads. The many trails follow along wide-open rolling hills into deep narrow valleys where water crossings pose a threat of becoming bogged down.

        Primitive camping is available at Virgin Valley Campground near the eastern entrance to the refuge. Here you will find vault toilets, a man-made warm springs pool, and solar showers all at no cost.

        In addition to off-highway vehicle use and wildlife viewing, many people come to the refuge for the expansive opal mining industry that allows rock-hounds to pay to search for the precious gemstones at private mines throughout the refuge. For more information on other campgrounds, mines, rules and regulations see the USFWS site.

        Directions

        From Winnemucca, Nevada take US 95 approx. 31.5 miles to NV-140, Turn left on NV-140 and after approx 65.5 miles stay left on NV-140 at Denio Junction, in 25 miles take a left onto Virgin Valley Ranch Road to Virgin Valley Campground.

        The reservoir and surrounding trails can be easily found by following State Route 447 North from Gerlach. Several large dirt pull-throughs can be found on the East side of Squaw Creek Reservoir. The reservoir and much of the surrounding land is managed by the Fish and Wildlife Service, although there are some section of private property open to the public in the area. Fishing is an extremely popular activity at the reservoir, and more information can be found at the Nevada Department of Wildlife website. Trails branch from the reservoir in all directions, including access to extensive trails in the Granite Range nearby.

        For wildlife spotters, Squaw Reservoir is a hidden gem in the Great Basin Desert. Accessible via paved roads, the reservoir provides water year round for flora and fauna in a region where lakes often vanish and reappear with the changing seasons. Waterfowl, antelope, deer, and other fauna are frequently seen enjoying the waters of the reservoir and its many nearby creeks. Several areas to the South and East of the reservoir abut private property. Please respect these land managers by staying on designated trails and roads. Almost the entirety of the valley, and the surrounding mountains, are accessible for free public camping and other BLM, FWS, and USFS permitted activities. All routes in the valley are within 23 miles of Gerlach, which features a gas station, restaurants, and some shopping and other amenities.

        Directions

        From Gerlach, proceed West on Main Street/County Route 447 out of town. Remain on Route 447 for roughly 19 minutes/17 miles. Squaw Creek, the Reservoir, or surrounding green foliage will be visible on the left as you approach. Pull off onto one of the dirt roads on the left; they are all connected to the same trails and campgrounds.

        Desert Creek Campground is a remote camping experience in Douglas County, Nevada, and is located within the Sweetwater Mountain Range of the Toiyabe National Forest. It is generally frozen in winter and snow levels make much of it inaccessible. There is a Forest Service campground (no charge) with restrooms and tables at the lower end and several primitive camping spots along much of the creek.

        OHV users can enjoy miles of backroads in this area. Native American petroglyphs between 1,000 and 4,000 years old can be found within a 1/2 mile downstream of the USFS campground. There is high recreational diversity at Desert Creek and the Sweetwater Mountains, including fishing, biking, hiking, and camping as well as OHV riding.

        Directions

        From the town of Wellington, head south on Hwy 338 for less than ¾ mile. Turn right onto Desert Creek Road; there is a small wooden sign denoting Desert Creek. The campground is about 6.5 miles south. Access road is narrow and has creek crossings, so a high clearance, 4WD vehicle is recommended. Area may be inaccessible during the early spring runoff, and snow limits or prevents access in the winter months.

        From Bridgeport, head north on CA-182, which turns into NV-338. Travel about 46 miles and turn left onto Desert Creek Rd.
