Granite Pass Scenic Vista - Mojave National Preserve


We concluded our March 2018 visit to Mojave National Preserve with a stop at the scenic vista point ¾ mile south side of Granite Pass on Kelbaker Road. This is also 15.1 miles south of Kelso or 7.2 miles north of I-40. An off-road, paved parking area has been constructed to allow visitors to stop and enjoy the rock formations along this ridge of the Granite Mountains.
