Bradshaw Trail

Yesterday I rode along on a Great Outdoors 4WD outing on part of the Bradshaw Trail. Other than little bits of dirt roads near Dos Palmas, this is the first time I've gotten to see the Bradshaw Trail which is drivable by any vehicle with good ground clearance. We started along the Coachella Canal near Dos Palmas and headed east, paralleling and crossing the Eagle Mountain railroad.

A lot of the Bradshaw Trail runs along the border of the Navy bombing practice range which is lined with warning signs. A few dummy bombs were near the road in order, I suppose, to satisfy the curiosity of travelers and discourage them from trying to explore in the bombing range.

You can see all the photos here, and these are some samples:
