Tie Rod Canyon

Tie Rod Canyon is a popular rock crawling trail located very close to Las Vegas. The trail travels from the flat desert area south of the city over a mountain pass and eventually down through a pretty challenging canyon. The trail can be run in either direction. The way the trail is presented here would be the easiest direction but still difficult for stock vehicles. The main obstacles you do encounter along the way are vertical and deeply undercut ledges with large boulders mixed in. To step up the difficulty even more, run the trail in reverse and do all the optional side trails along the route. Either direction you choose to run the trail, you're sure to find something that will challenge your modified vehicle.
