This is a high clearance 4wd trip.

Start here N37.35355 W115.59422
Be careful of a road hazard here N37.34736 W115.59638
On the trip to Roadblock canyon, it will be obvious that you should go to the right to avoid this road hazard. On the way back, you may miss this spot so take a good look at the area on the way out.

Go straight here N37.33833 W115.59990

go straight here N37.33532 W115.61462

Park here N37.32528 W115.63420

Warning signs are here N37.32620 W115.63772

I'm a bit baffled that I have waypoints going beyond the signs, so maybe the signs are inside the border and the orange poles are further back. I've only done this once.

On the way back, if you forget about the road hazard, you will go over a small hill and wreck your vehicle. I set the GPS to give me an alarm before reaching this point so that I remember to drive around the road hazard, i.e veer to the left.

The starting point I listed is a bit rough and not a marked road. You can start here instead N37.36141 W115.56931. It avoids the road hazard, but it is a longer off-road drive by nearly 2 miles.
