Home / Mojave Preserve and Desert bikepacking trips / Fall 2011: Route 66 bicycle-camping—Cady Mountains, Sleeping Beauty and Kelso Dunes Wilderness
I visited the Broadwell Dry Lake and Kelso Dunes Wilderness Area off Route 66, and just outside Mojave National Preserve, this time last year and decided that there's more I want to explore there. So here I am again! I'll log 185 combined bicycle and hiking miles and enjoy very pleasant autumn weather during this 8-day trip.
