The greater Joshua Tree area offers a vast area of public lands where OHV off road jeeping is permitted. Amongst these public lands are many private properties. There is a serious problem with OHV users blatantly trespassing private property. This will not be tolerated. You will be prosecuted and your vehicles confiscated! The terrain varies from Colorado Desert dunes type conditions found in both low desert Coachella Valley to the boulder dome country of the Mojave Desert of the Morongo Basin.
Successful Jeeping is all about preparedness. Cell service is little to none in the areas.
Leave the pavement prepared.
