Hi everyone, first question (and first post here): I am going to drive the Mojave Road next week then up to Death Valley. Who would I contact in the event of a breakdown? Is there a go-to 4x4 recovery service in the Barstow region? Thanks!

First make sure you got ranger numbers in case you get cell service. Second I would have a Sat comm device like a InReach or something and most important I would not be alone.

There is a guy Named Benzso who does tons of recoveries in the desert, he has a fb page; Mojave Desert Offroad Recovery

Have fun, be safe!

Thanks for the info. I do have an InReach, self-recovery gear, and lots of experience. We'll only have one vehicle though, I'll be with my wife and young boys.
