Bring food, water, weather-appropriate clothing, a hat, and a chair. Walkie-talkies on channel 2. No charge; registration required at the Nature Center (760-767-3098). Because of our small group size, ABDNHA members have priority on 4WD trips. We invite you to join today! Note: Rated Level 4 Short Wheelbase Vehicle only. Rainbow Wash requires high-clearance, short-wheelbase 4WD and confidence in off-camber situations and soft sand. Sway bar disconnecting or airing down can help traction and comfort.
