Potash Road to Schafer Canyon
Very Easy (we saw a 2WD Chrysler minivan and a 2nd gen Prius) trail well suited for most vehicles. Amazing scenery (see photos). As of Jun 2021, no permit required for this trail. Spectacular views from the “Thelma & Louise” point.

This is a fantastic Jeep trail for any vehicle with a bit of high clearance. Evaporation ponds, fantastic scenery and a good chance to see wildlife.
