Trail Overview

The trail starts off of Kyle Canyon Rd (Highway 157) and takes you into Grapevine Canyon in Mount Charleston. 4WD is recommended. The first part of the trail is pretty easy with some sandy areas that lead to Grapevine Springs. This is a beautiful canyon with a lot of greenery, as you continue past that the trail starts to get hard-packed with some off-camber and slightly rocky narrow canyons on your way to Grass Springs. You may see some wildlife, a small green meadow, and a partial stone cabin. There is no fee to enter and it is not busy. This was so much fun and beginner-friendly.

This trail has some sandy areas on the first portion, once you hit the middle part it is more hard-packed gravel with off-camber and some rocky small ledges that you will want high clearance and 4WD. You will also navigate through some narrow canyons.

Most of the trail was very easy, however there is one section that is quite narrow and technical, with a decent climb through obstacles. You WILL get some new pinstriping through this section unless you are on a motorcycle.

Drove from 95 southwest towards Mt Charleston. First half follows the telephone poles and is very easy. Was able to travel the first half at relatively high speed in Bronco Baja mode. Trails then splits and you turn sharp left on the OnX trail rather than continue straight. This takes you down a narrow canyon/wash where you will get some pin-striping from the bushes. This is the more scenic part of the trail and where we came upon a herd of wild burrows (the source of the small road-apples you see along the trail). Next time I would consider starting at the other end of the trail and just go up and back down this more scenic part of the trail.
