Description
This offroad trail is, in fact, the remains of a wagon trail of the 19th century. The Bradshaw Trail was a route used by gold prospectors traveling to the Colorado River. Interstate 10 largely represents the original route, but 70 miles of the true original still exist and are best experienced on four wheel drive. Expect long sections of desert sand.
