Salt Trail Canyon to LCR Gorge, AZ :: Question by MeredithJW

[MeredithJW]

Does anyone know about the road leading up to the trailhead? Do you need an AWD or high clearance?

@MeredithJW
listed as FR / Jeep Road - Car possible when dry
Which seems about right as the road travels well because it's so flat. Keep in mind it's a long road with no services for a long ways. While a car may have enough clearance I'd sleep better being out that far with better multi-ply tires than cars typically have.

I've done it in a standard clearance vehicle w/standard tires, although it's been a few years (road conditions can change). It was doable, as long as I took it slow and placed my wheels properly in the rough spots.

@toddak
Awesome thank you!

@joebartels Any tips on locating the trailhead? An article I read made getting there seem pretty tricky.

@MeredithJW
The directions are listed on the hike description page and if you select "alternate routes" there are GPS routes posted for the drive to the trailhead.
