What's the most remote difficult place to reach in the park?
#16
Not being a hiker, I can’t claim the slot canyons conquered by some here, or the way out places others have trod.

Some of my 4WD roads over the years:

* Goler/Mengle/Butte Valley/West Side Road numerous times.

* Over Hunter Mountain to Teakettle Junction.

* Lippincott trail, several times.

* Steel Pass - one time all the way (Saline to Eureka), Eureka to Marble Bath several times.

* Saline Valley road South to North Pass, several times.

* Tule Canyon - numerous times

* Eureka Valley to Gilbert Summit trail, several times.

* Horsethief Canyon trail, Eureka Valley to Fish Lake Valley - several times.

* Oriental Wash - several times

* Chloride City/Cliff - several times.

* Capricorn Mine (east slope Funeral Range SE of Chloride City) - one time.

* Nevada Triangle, Strozzi Ranch, Phinney Mine - one time

* Titus Canyon - twice

* Skidoo - numerous times

* Harrisburg / Aguereberry Point - several times

* Surprise Canyon / Panamint City - Several times in the lower canyon to the top of the falls, once to PC

* Echo Canyon/Inyo Mine/Schwab - one time, hike to Schwab townsite.

* West Side Road (entire length) several times.

* Racetrack road, numerous times.

* Pleasant Canyon, several times to Claire Camp, and up to the Porter Mine gate and overlook into Happy Canyon.

* South Park Canyon, several times to Briggs camp, the bridge, Chicken Rock, South Park.

* Pleasant Canyon/South Park Loop, one time for the complete loop.


The trails in the northern Eureka Valley I’ve never encountered anyone, as those 4WD trails are little known. The Capricorn is little known, the road almost reclaimed by nature. Didn’t see a soul. Extreme northern DV little traffic.
