Section 6, otherwise known as the Desert View Conservation Area is an undeveloped square-mile parcel on the Onaga Trail east of Quail Springs Road. A maze of single track trails and dirt roads wonder around rock formations and through Mojave desert vegetation. A lot of local effort has gone into the development of bike trails in this area. Kudos to all who's involved in making Section 6 so awesome.
