Quartz Peak

Post by hikeaz »

Hi,
Anyone been to Quartz Peak in a car recently ?
Was wondering about the road condition...

Thanks!

I was there in late Dec. and there were a couple of cars at the trail head. Mary

We went there Saturday. We took the south route in. You definately need a 4wd or a high profile truck to make it from this route. Several of the wash crossings have been completely washed away, and it would be impossible to take this route without a high profile vehicle.
