Road Conditions Change Rapidly Most roads are unsurfaced and irregularly maintained. Soft sand, deep ruts and washouts are common and high clearance or four-wheel drive may be necessary. Never drive beyond the limits of the vehicle. Clay-based roads become impassable when wet. Weather conditions can render some roads impassable for days. Do not attempt to drive across flooded wash crossings. In case of mechanical breakdown, stay with the vehicle. Always have one, preferably two, full size spare tires, a jack, a toolkit, and a shovel.

Road Conditions Change Rapidly Most roads are unsurfaced and irregularly maintained. Soft sand, deep ruts and washouts are common and high clearance or four-wheel drive may be necessary. Never drive beyond the limits of the vehicle. Clay-based roads become impassable when wet. Weather conditions can render some roads impassable for days. Do not attempt to drive across flooded wash crossings. In case of mechanical breakdown, stay with the vehicle. Always have one, preferably two, full size spare tires, a jack, a toolkit, and a shovel. Contact a Monument Visitor Center for current backcountry road conditions.
