Desert Run returns for 42nd year – off road fun for all ages

The Morongo Basin Search and Rescue is putting on the 42nd annual Desert Run on Saturday October 1st. The Desert Run is a family event that takes place around the Means dry lake in Johnson Valley – but it’s not a race so you can bring out all types of off-road vehicles to explore the wide open desert on a small, friendly, local level. The off-road course will be at least 20 miles long, with 5 stops along that way where you can play games and win prizes.

All skill levels are encouraged – from hardcore enthusiasts to casual explorers. If any section of the course seems too daunting, there are easier routes that you’ll be directed to – so everyone has a chance to have fun and participate.

Pre-registration is encouraged for the event – the cost is $60 dollars per playing card or $30 for military and law enforcement families. You can see a full schedule of this event along with registration information at www.desertrun.org
