Expect it to be very hot, forecast for 29Palms is 110 on Saturday and there is NO WATER OR CELL SERVICE. Even CB and HAM can be spotty due to the mountain terrain. If sticking to the National Park roads there shouldn’t be any issues as most are paved and gravel roads are pretty well maintained. Trails like Gold Crown and Old Dale have lots of sand and shale rock. Sidewall punctures are a very serious risk.
It’s a wonderful area to explore but this time of year the outlining areas won’t be very traveled. I’ve gone days out there without seeing another car. Take lots of water, some food, sun screen, hat, and some source of shade just in case. Better to be over prepared than under.
As a last note there is also no fuel out there. So filling up at 29Palms will be you’re last stop before entering the park.
