SaveThe Bradshaw Mountain trails are rugged, remote, and not for the faint of heart. Mostly old mining and goat trails adopted into the Travel Management rule by some dedicated dirt bike volunteers, they can also be an epic adventure and escape from the busier trails in Prescott. If you don't want to see anyone except maybe a dirt bike or two, and don't mind lots of sharp rocks, catclaw, and HAB, head out here. Best time of year tends to be the shoulder seasons. You can encounter snow near Crown King but may still be hot down in Mayer.
