High Valley Rd Dispersed

The road up from the south is like a runway now, wide, smooth not a single rut. A bit dusty but other than that it's the easiest fire road I've ever driven (Mazda CX-5). Northern end is a bit narrower but still all graded, better up higher on BLM property than lower national forest road.

Lots of little pullouts when you reach the top and then as you head down the north side more with beautiful views of the lake. Some private property on that end but nothing unusual.

Agree with the other poster. Road is in bad condition and cars won't make it through.

The road to this pin is completely impassable in any regular vehicle, this would require an ATV. We took a regular AWD midsize SUV, after seeing the review with photos of a regular car. The road is EXTREMELY narrow and windy on the edge of a cliff. There is no way to turn around once you start up it. It has deep ruts in the road. We got to a large trench in the road that we couldn't go around because we would fall off the cliff. We tried to put the trench between the wheels, but our tire went in it and we bottomed out very badly and almost got stuck. We ended up having to spend 30 minutes backing slowly down the road. Long story short, just don't even try.

Very nice spot with multiple places to pull over and camp. There’s views of Lear Lake if you want to walk a bit. No water nearby. The road is very dusty on the way up!
