Fire Mountain Cove Road, located in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, is a 5-mile dead-end road that offers users non-stop scenic views and tremendous dispersed camping as it traverses a ridgeline heading straight at Fire Mountain. The road is not difficult, but it is extremely bumpy due to the long stretches of washboard. The road surface is generally hard-packed dirt with scattered patches of coarse sand and loose gravel. The rolling hills and sweeping turns of this trail keep the drive entertaining, and as you approach the Colorado River, the sides of the trail become lined with posts and cable, delineating the trail and camping area. The first campsite you encounter is a large, flat campsite looking directly at Fire Mountain. This site is great for groups of 5-6 vehicles and suitable for small offroad trailers and ground tents. Continuing towards the river, you will pass two small campsites next to the road before reaching a Y-intersection, where you will continue to the final round-about campsite just above Fire Mountain Cove. These last few campsites are best for vehicle camping and ground tents. There are no amenities for these campsites, and users must pack out everything they pack in, including human waste. This trail is suitable for any high clearance vehicle and can easily be handled in 2WD or with an AWD crossover-type vehicle.
