This 2,000-acre recreation area is overseen by the Bureau of Land Management, and it's pretty rustic. You'll find a small campground with 10 campsites, vault toilets and some soaking tubs. You'll want to bring plenty of water - there's no fresh water available here.

Millions of years ago, this place was an ancient beach, and the sand here is deep, soft and perfect for riding. It's a giant sandbox for adults!

The fee to enjoy this park? Just $3 per vehicle, per day! Make sure that your vehicles have safety flags - this pretty spot can get crowded during winter months and you'll want to make sure you're visible to other riders.

After a long day of riding, you might want to check out the soaking tubs. An artesian well pumps out 106-degree water into the tubs, making them the perfect spot for a relaxing soak. These tubs are not clothing-optional, however, so bring a swimsuit with you.
