Painted Canyon

Deep sand at times. They recommend 4 wheel drive. Got in on my Ducati but it wasn’t pretty. Only one at the entire place and only a few miles from town.

BLM land surrounded by Mecca wilderness good spot for boondocking. Washboard road into the camping area lots of sand so be careful and don't get dug in. Spent the first night at the pit toilet camp area spent the second night up by the trailhead which by the way needs a pit toilet. I did the rope canyon trail and it's fairly dangerous and strenuous take gloves and be ready to do a lot of crawling and bouldering.

I went there set up my tent and went for the hike really beautiful place but be careful on my way down I went to my tent and I saw a couple that were on their truck they got down and got closer to me I said hi and waved but they didn’t even move and just stare at me and than they turned around and went to their truck l felt like something was wrong and I was by myself so I went to Joshua tree instead just be careful people
