Trip Notes: Domelands Campout

The road is unmaintained sand/dirt, with lots of rocks. 4×4 recommended, SUV/truck clearance recommended. A minivan has done it, but not without bottoming out. Fortunately, they did not get stuck. The sand/dirt road is very slow going. The highway is 2-lane, decent, watch for potholes. Popup canopies recommended in case of rain.

No services; bring your own water and toilet.

Camp at the fire ring (circled) up on the high ground. Avoid the low ground in case of rain, and avoid the canyons in case of flash floods.

January is an ideal time to camp and hike this trail.
