ATVs and the Kawasaki Teryx4 UTV
Choose solo control on a fully automatic ATV or ride in a four‑seat Kawasaki Teryx4 UTV that’s built to climb trails, crawl boulders and carry a full passenger load while maintaining agility on desert tracks.
Secluded Sonoran Desert Trails
The route winds through diverse Sonoran Desert landscape—open washes, rocky sections and scrub—using some of the Southwest’s more secluded off‑roading trails under the direction of a knowledgeable guide.
Safety Gear, Snacks and Photos
Tours include full‑face helmets and goggles, bottled water and snacks, a knowledgeable guide and daytime photos delivered via SmugMug so riders can keep the images from the outing.
