Access Description

As you enter Bullion Canyon from the east, the trail quickly transforms from open grasslands into a narrow canyon characterized by its shelf roads, steep grades, and tight switchbacks. The route becomes increasingly challenging as it progresses, with the road often barely wider than a standard vehicle. The canyon walls close in, leaving no room for error or turnaround, demanding careful navigation and precise driving. The west side of the canyon offers a different kind of reward: spectacular views of the vast salt flats below. These views are constant companions as you navigate the precarious paths, adding a breathtaking visual element to the adrenaline-filled drive.
