Report: West of El Centro on Evan Hewes hwy. Easy to find. You can park + stage just about anywhere.
Conditions: Wide open desert. Some hills on the far west side. This is a great place for an atv. It gets a little tricky for a motorcyclist, because the soil is very loose -- sand or soft dirt. Difficult to steer and stay upright.
Water Availability: no water
