The 138 mile long Mojave Road is one of the most iconic overland routes in California.  And while it's not the longest, most technical or arduous track, the stark beauty of the Mojave desert, quirky attractions, and rich pioneer history makes this route the perfect weekend get away.  And because it's relatively mild on the technical rating scale, it's a great route for beginners to try their hand at overlanding and off road exploration. 

We chat with John Liotti from Northern California about his experiences on the old Mojave Road and why he keeps heading back to the deserts of the American Southwest.  In fact, you may recognize the voice or name, which is because we had John on a previous episode to discuss the Kofa Pioneer trail.  

Overland Trail Guides features thousands of miles of curated routes, including the Mojave Road.
