Year-round
Okay, adventurers, buckle up for Bean Hill in southwestern Utah! This isn't your Sunday drive. We're talking a gnarly, high-altitude climb up to 9,091 feet! The road is gravel and pretty rocky, and can get downright treacherous in spots.
Seriously, you'll need a 4x4 for this one. And definitely only tackle it when it's dry! Weather up here changes in a heartbeat and closures happen. So check conditions *before* you even think about heading out. Wet or dark? Forget about it. This road's a stunner, and the views from the top are killer, but be smart and be prepared!

🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, adventure-seekers, listen up! Cerro Saragate in New Mexico's Rio Arriba County is calling your name... if you're up for a challenge! This isn't your Sunday drive; we're talking a gravel and rocky climb to a whopping 10,337 feet! Think serious elevation, incredible views, and a road that demands respect. Winter? Forget about it – this baby's snowed in. Not a fan of unpaved roads or heights? Maybe skip this one. But if you've got a 4x4, a thirst for adventure, and a steady nerve, you're in for a treat.

extremeWhere is Waunita Pass?
🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, buckle up, adventurers! Waunita Pass, nestled high in Gunnison County, Colorado, is a must-see. We're talking serious altitude here! Find it south of Pitkin, deep in the Gunnison National Forest. The road? Totally unpaved, baby! But fear not, most 2WD vehicles can handle it in dry weather. Just be warned, it can get dicey when Mother Nature throws a tantrum. It's called Waunita Pass Road (County Road 763), and it winds through the forest like a charm, though it does get pretty steep in spots. This isn't some modern highway, either. This road dates way back to the late 1800s/early 1900s! Heads up: winter slams the door shut. Heavy snow makes it a no-go zone. The drive is about long, stretching from Pitkin to County Road 887. Expect absolutely magnificent views and scenery—trust me, your camera roll will thank you!
extremeGraham Peak
🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, so you're looking for an off-the-beaten-path adventure in Idaho? Let me tell you about Graham Peak! This baby sits high in Cassia County, smack-dab in the Albion Mountains, topping out at a whopping 8,861 feet. Getting to the summit is definitely not for the faint of heart. Forest Road 707 is a gravel grinder, think rocky, tippy, and bumpy – all the fun stuff! Winter? Forget about it, this road's a no-go. It's a trail best left to experienced 4x4 drivers who know their stuff. If unpaved mountain roads aren't your jam, steer clear. And a heads up – it's steep! Wet conditions turn the road into a muddy mess, making things even more interesting. But if you're up for the challenge, the views from the top are totally worth it.

🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, adventurers, listen up! If you're anywhere near Mesa, Arizona, you HAVE to check out the Phon D Sutton Trail! Nestled in the Tonto National Forest (Arizona's biggest!), this isn't your average Sunday drive. Forget pavement – this is an old-school, unmaintained trail that will seriously test your off-roading skills. Seriously, a 4x4 isn't just recommended, it's REQUIRED! You'll climb up to 2,194 feet, so get ready for some epic views. Clocking in at just over 11 miles, starting from the Road to N Bush Highway, it's not a super long trek, but the rugged terrain will definitely keep you on your toes. Prepare for a wild ride and some seriously stunning scenery!
