The obstacle course and most areas in within Hungry Valley OHV park are perfect for any stock Land Rover, and drivers of all experience levels. Pronghorn Trail is a moderate trail, and stock Rovers are welcome. Miller Jeep Trail is more advanced. High ground clearance, off road tires, and underbody protection are highly reccommended. Lockers are helpful, but not required. Recovery points and a full size spare tire is required for all trucks running the Miller trail. Sterling Canyon is a short and moderate trail that starts from the enterance of the Hungry Valley and drops into the campgrounds and a short distance from the Offroad Practice area.
