Tres Alamos Wilderness
|
8,300 acres of desert are here and varied desert at that, from the jutting dry peaks of the Black Mountains to the rugged, but low-elevation plains. Sawyer Peak (elevation: 4,293) is one of the wilderness's landmarks, as is Tres Alamos, a monolith of colored stone. Wildlife is here in force; look out for the Gila monster and the golden eagle.

If driving Highway 93, you'll find Alamo Road at milepost 179, which you'll turn onto. Drive Alamo for about six and a half miles, then turn onto Pipeland Ranch Road. Drive seven miles on this and you'll be at the south end of the wilderness.
