Questions

Do we need UTV experience?
No. Escape the City Tours provides full instruction and guides handle all technical sections; most riders are beginners.
What's the fitness level required?
Moderate. Eight hours in a UTV seat with breaks; no hiking beyond 1-2 miles on flat terrain.
Is camping at Mesquite Sand Dunes primitive?
Yes—no hookups, pit toilets, bring your own water. The payoff is zero light pollution and unobstructed Milky Way.
