Goldstrike Loop 🔁 (2nd)

Goldstrike Loop (2nd run)

Goldstrike Canyon offers a unique view of the Hoover Dam's desert mountains. After a few miles of easy dirt you'll immediately climb up a very narrow shelf road high above the Lake Mead level. The entire loop is a single shelf road right off the mountain cliff, not for the faint of heart. The short route that travels along the northern edge of the Black Canyon wilderness, a rugged power line road with desert mountain landscape. Best views at late sundown to get the colors of the mountains and to avoid traffic in the single shelf road. It is advised to leave the cliffside right before the darkness for safety.

Trail Rated: 2 (with Cliffside shelf road)
"not gonna put it as rated 1 as we cannot do the whole loop with a low clearance off-road vehicle"

Notes: From the Gas Station we have about a couple of miles of drive before we hit dirt.
Slow steady phase, no obstacles but great views.
Only taking a small group because of the very tight single shelf roads.
Sundown to get the color views and to avoid traffic.
