Name: Railroad Canyon from Sloan
Start: 2026-04-25T16:00:00.000Z

One of the really fascinating areas to visit within the "Avi Kwa Ame National Monument" is the Wee Thump Joshua Tree Wilderness Area.
It comprises 6,050 acres and has an expanse of old-growth Joshua trees. "Wee Thump" means "ancient ones" in the language of the Paiute people.
The point of entrance to the trail is just prior to reach Searchlight and we will end up on Nipton Road. It is an easy trail and the scenery is magical.
We will meet at 9am at the Eldorado travel center I11 Railroad Pass Rd, Henderson, NV 89002
Rolling at 9:15am, be early if you need to gas up or need to do last minute snack shopping.
Ending time is approximate.

2ND CHANCE - WEE THUMP JOSHUA TREE WILDERNESS

Easy 4x4 drive from Via Inspirada to Jean Lake Bed area where we can explore around in the maze of trails, share experience and tips such as safety and trail etiquette which will be discuss at the drivers meeting and along the way. Ending time is a guess.
What makes that run interesting is we go through multiple type of terrains: Rocky ways, sand, up and down hills make this 4x4 drive a good one for new OFFRO4Ders with the desire to acquire knowledge about their vehicle and skills off-roading as well for experts to test their new gears and share experience.

It is 4x4 stock friendly. However, we will air down anyway as we will be traveling through different kind of terrain and because we ***Tread Lightly***. (advantages of airing down will be explained to the new offro4ders).
If you do not have deflators and air pump: **we got you**, no worries.
Ending time is approximate.

We will have lunch at the sand hill or at the quarry which is quiet since it's at the dead end of a trail, away from the lake bed and has awesome views.
Bring your favorite snacks and off the grid lunch, a jacket, shade and chairs as well as **plenty of water to stay hydrated**.\*
\* location for lunch may vary depending timing. (During summer temperatures, lunch time is shorten to less than 30 minutes so we have more time enjoying the A/C in our vehicle).

***Recommended:***
Your best camera: we love seeing your pictures.
Any off-road capable vehicle (jeep rating 2 with optional obstacle for the experts).
GMRS radio is encouraged but not required.
***Mandatory:***
A/T tires or mud tires (I mean no street tires) in good condition and a working full size spare tire.
Food, snacks, plenty of water.

You are welcome to have guests in your vehicle and are responsible for their behavior.

Beginners 4x4 Drive Experience. Skilled Drivers Welcome

Shell

Railroad Canyon is a fun trail close to Las Vegas. It starts off of South Las Vegas Blvd, follows the train tracks under the interstate then swings under an old tunnel under the tracks. **The trail is rated difficult due to the section in the wash with the ledges and** **waterfall climbs.** On the GPX track, this would be the Southwest section of the trail shaped like a "C." The rest of the trail is moderate, mainly due to several steep hill climbs.
*I do have recorded my own track which will makes us enter the dirt in Sloan.*
Ending time is a guess.
**This is not** a drive for beginners
