Little Box Canyon Road follows the northern border of the Mecca Hills Wilderness and is just north of the Salton Sea. The trail cuts through a narrow canyon and is often surrounded by near-vertical 40-foot cliffs rising to make for breathtaking scenery on this leisurely drive. To the north of the trail is BLM land with more unmarked trails to explore. At 2.3 miles long and running west to east, Little Box Canyon Road is on a wide flat wash of loose sandy gravel. Starting at the paved Box Canyon Road, Little Box Canyon Road terminates at another dirt road, Meccacopia trail. There are no obstacles on the trail. This trail is suitable for first-time off-roaders with a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
