Fonts Point — Attraction in La Quinta

Free entry. 4 mile drive on dirt road once off the main road. My Hyundai sonata made it. Theres not a lot of soft sand but just be careful and prepared with supplies in case you get stuck in soft sand. Able to camp along the 4 miles if dirt road to a certain point. Closer to the parking lot and at the lookout no camping. No one was there when I went so not busy area. No bathrooms or water. Pack up supplies you'll need. Beautiful! Small grand canyon. Really cool lookout. Cool lizards. Some information posted along the way was informational. Id say careful walking along the edge. Sandy so you can slide. Trail that went off into the canyons a bit. Don't know any info on how far or how hard. Definitely was hot so be prepared depending on what season your visiting in. Dogs not allowed. Signs posted informing their impact on the area...
