Dead Mountains Wilderness SIZE: 48,850 acres LOCATION: San Bernardino County; 12 miles northwest of Needles, California ![]() NATURAL RESOURCES: This wilderness is dominated by the mountain range for which it is named. The spine of the Dead Mountains runs north to south and is a jagged, steep, rust-colored range crowned by Mount Manchester at 4,000 feet. The mountains give way to sweeping bajadas that gradually slope toward the Piute Valley in the west and the Colorado River on the east.
ACCESS: A popular access to the Dead Mountains is to hike south from the segment of the Mojave Road that parallels the Nevada State line, which also forms the northern boundary of the wilderness. To locate the Mojave Road, go approximately 16 miles north from Needles, California on River Road (PEW Road on 7.5 maps). Turn west at the rock cairn and travel up the wash. |
