Home / Mojave Preserve and Desert bikepacking trips / 2009, Fall: Mojave National Preserve / Day 1: Baker to east side of Devil's Playground, northwest of Old Dad Mountain, by bicycle, Mojave National Preserve /
I take a break at Kelbaker Road's "10-mile bend," entering the hills of Mojave National Preserve, sweating lightly
I often take a short break here to eat an energy bar. It's an easy 1000-foot "climb" from Baker to here over 10 miles, but on the first day of a trip, loaded down with supplies and extra water, it always feels good to reach this point.
