Whitney Pocket

Whitney Pocket is an excellent example of the best that BLM has to offer in the high desert. The road in is a little rough - very rough in spots - but it's totally worth it. We drove it in our 42' rig with a tow'd attached and we got rattled around quite a bit but it's very doable.

Fair warning: The road shows at least a dozen areas of complete washouts from monsoonal rain, so keep an eye on the weather... any hint of rain and I would strongly consider not going if we weren't already there, or leaving early if we were.

There are a few spots along Gold Butte Road that are large and flat enough for rigs our size... smaller rigs would have even more options. The views are spectacular, the topography is breathtaking and it's FREE!

We had zero phone coverage or data access, but surprisingly we had excellent TV antenna reception.
