Trail Overview
The Powerline Road is a rugged trail that begins just off of Old Sonoita Highway and runs eastward along I-10 towards the Whetstone Mountains. The Powerline trail is popular with ATVs, dirt bikes, SxSs, and other off-road vehicles. Back-road travel can be hazardous, so be aware of weather and road conditions. Carry plenty of water. Don't travel alone, and let someone know where you are going and when you plan to return. Cell service is patchy, so download your map before your trip. The time to complete and the difficulty listed are subject to many factors, including the vehicle type used and the rider's capabilities.
