Year-round
Okay, so you're heading to Lake Mohave, right? Check out Six Mile Cove – it's this sweet little spot in southeastern Nevada, practically kissing the Arizona border.
Now, getting there is part of the adventure! You'll be cruising along Mead-Davis Powerline Road for about 6.3 miles, and fair warning: this road is all dirt! It can get pretty washboard-y. Most cars can make it, and RVs do too, but honestly, a 4WD would be your best bet for a smoother ride.
Six Mile Cove is popular, especially in the summer, so try to get there early, like a Friday. There's plenty of space on the waterfront and for parking, but keep in mind your cell signal might be spotty out there. Happy travels!

moderateIs the road to Black Mountain in Jeff Davis County unpaved?
🇺🇸 Usa
Alright, adventure seekers, listen up! Deep in the heart of Texas, in Jeff Davis County, lies Black Mountain. Forget your fancy sports cars, you're gonna need a 4x4 for this one. The road to the summit is a solid 6.2 miles of unpaved goodness, climbing to a cool 6,587 feet. Expect stunning West Texas scenery, but also be prepared for some rugged conditions. Keep an eye out for the radio tower at the top – you've made it! This isn't your typical Sunday drive, but the views are so worth it.
hardApache Peak
🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, adventure seekers, buckle up for Apache Peak in northeastern Arizona's Apache County! This isn't your average Sunday drive. We're talking about one of Arizona's highest mountain roads, topping out at a cool 10,938 feet. Located within the Fort Apache Indian Reservation, this isn't paved paradise. Expect gravel and rocks all the way, as it's a service road/chairlift trail for the Sunrise Park Resort. Picture this: seriously steep inclines with loose stones under your tires, and it gets even rockier as you climb. The window to tackle this is tiny, think late summer (end of August). Oh, and did I mention the wind? It's a constant companion up here, and even summer can throw you a snowy curveball. Winter? Let's just say you'll want to pack your arctic gear. Expect some sections around 30% incline! The views though? Totally worth it. Just be prepared for a wild ride!
moderateWhere is Red Rock Pass?
🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, adventure awaits at Red Rock Pass! This high-altitude beauty sits right on the Idaho-Montana border, perched atop the Continental Divide at a cool 7,152 feet. You'll find it connecting Beaverhead County, Montana, to Fremont County, Idaho. The road itself? It's a well-maintained gravel track, known as Red Rock Pass Road and South Valley Road. Nothing a regular 2WD can't handle! Keep in mind, though, that winter can be a whole different story. This area, nestled in the Centennial Mountains, gets hammered with snow, making the pass impassable for a good chunk of the year. Even in summer, be ready for those classic mountain weather mood swings. The whole route stretches for about 55.6 miles, cruising from Interstate 15 in Montana to US-20 Highway, just north of Island Park. And is it worth the trek? Absolutely! Expect jaw-dropping scenery as you wind your way through some seriously stunning landscapes. Trust me, your camera will thank you.

🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, adventurers, listen up! Wanna conquer a mountain in central Montana's Lewis and Clark National Forest? Porphyry Peak is calling your name! Perched right on the county line, this beauty tops out at a cool 8,202 feet (2,500 meters). At the summit, you'll find the Porphyry Peak Lookout Tower, the perfect spot to soak in those jaw-dropping views of the Little Belt Mountains. Now, about the road... Forest Service Road 834 is your path to glory. It's a decent trek to the top, and you'll definitely feel the climb. Heads up: even though this road is usually open year-round, winter can throw some curveballs. Make sure you're prepped for tough winter driving conditions before you head out!
