Home / Mojave Preserve and Desert bikepacking trips / Fall 2012: Mojave National Preserve bicycle-camping and hiking, Lanfair Valley loop / Day 8: Ivanpah Rd to Nipton and then Primm the next morning /
I zoom down the short paved stretch of Ivanpah Rd between Slaughterhouse Spring and the train tracks
1.5 miles of gentle downhill in a glorious 10 minutes, remarkable in its ease compared to most parts of these usually slow desert trips. I pass the old Ivanpah store before arriving at the train tracks. Then on to another dirt road.
