What a great find! I had no idea that this place existed. I was driving around looking for little Finland, and drove right through here. I’m definitely coming back to explore more. I found the devils throat, but didn’t know about the devils nostril. This area is gorgeous, but bring plenty of water. I went through almost 100 oz of water, in just a few hours of hiking @ 90°

Keep in mind its a very long bumpy road to get there, its paved but hasn't been maintained in years. Most cars can make it, you don't need an off-road vehicle. Its a beautiful place to hike, camp, picnic for the day or bring the side by side (RZR) and dirt bikes. One of the roads had access to a lake but that road was unpaved and extremely bumpy.

This is one of my favorite places to off-road and go camping at. Tons and tons of off road to explore. Many good sites around. Make sure to bring lots of water and food and gas. Pretty secluded area but awesome. One of the best places to see the night sky. No real bathrooms out here either. So come prepared for sure. This is pretty much the access point to the east side of Lake Mead.

I loved this place! It’s down a 20 mile rough road but worth the drive.

The roads in are trashed with potholes. Devels Hole is fenced off so there is nothing to see. Beautiful rocks to see.

A place you can truly escape to. Rough road out keeps the less committed away. A few great campsites if you are inclined and lots of free roaming wild burrows to keep you company.

We were on the cusp of summer, so it was hot but worth the view. It's a drive, so bring plenty of water.
