What’s Hump’N’Bump?

Hump’N’Bump is an internationally recognized, low-speed, three-day event, where participants are guided over existing trails of varying difficulty in and around the Logandale trails and Valley of Fire recreation area. The open nature of the scenic trails and very low speeds allows for larger groups with negligible impact to the environment.

Since 2009, Hump’N’Bump has been based at the Clark County Fairgrounds in Logandale, NV. The area provides an excellent venue for our event with a bandstand stage, tables and bleachers. The location also provides hookups for up to 122 RV’s and there is a large grass area for tent camping.

The event includes three days of guided trail rides, vendor booths of various products, spectator events, training seminars, bonfire, and special events that change annually. On Saturday night, after everybody has returned to the fairgrounds from the trails and had a chance to relax, we all move to the Glen Hardy building for a delicious dinner. Shortly after dinner, we have a raffle for all kids 12 and under, where each child wins a prize. Following the kids’ raffle, we start the main event raffle, featuring thousands of dollars worth of prizes generously donated to our event by our amazing sponsors.

How does Hump’N’Bump help the community?

Proceeds from our non-profit event are donated back to the community to help keep our public lands open for off-road vehicles, and to continue to provide local land access for future generations. Some of the great partners and causes supported through donations from our most recent event include:
1 October Fund • 22 Warriors Foundation • American Cancer Society • Blue Ribbon Coalition • Boy Scouts of America • Bureau of Land Management • Cappalappa Community Center • County Commission Marilyn Kirkpatrick • Friends of Metro • Friends of Red Rock Canyon • Jessi Combs Foundation • K9 for Warriors • LVMPD – Northeast Resident Division • Moapa Valley Fire District • Moapa Valley Ham Radio Club (W7MVR) • Moapa Valley Library • Nevada Offroad Association • Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth • Partners In Conservation • Perkins Field Flying Club • Project 150 • Red Rock Search and Rescue • The Shade Tree • Southern Nevada Pug Rescue • Southern Nye County Search and Rescue • Total Karnage • Tread Lightly • United Four Wheel Drive Association • Utah Public Lands Alliance • Valley Of Fire State Park • VFW Post 8336.

Bitter Springs - Trail Rated 3
Trail Rating: 3 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 28"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

The Bitter Springs Back Country Byway connects Interstate 15 to North Shore Road that surrounds Lake Mead by following old mining roads and washes through the Muddy Mountains. A major site to be seen is the multicolored sandstone formations known as the Buffington Pockets. Tracks from the Old Spanish trail (later known as the Mormon trail), a path created by Spanish explorers in 1776 and later by settlers and miners heading west, can be seen crossing the trail. This area has attracted people throughout time due to the springs and water holes. Evidence of this can be seen in the petroglyphs, pictographs, rock art,  ant hill shaped roasting pits. Settlement in the area created mining ventures. Old borax mines can be seen, where sandstone was quarried. There is plenty of extraordinary views and landscapes to be seen along the byway. Wildlife in the area includes wild horse and bighorn sheep. During Hump'N'Bump we do not enter National Park Service land, as we turn around in the major wash and treat this as an in and out trail.

Rock'N The Narrows - Trail Rated 3

Minimum Tire Size: 28"

Trail Rating: 3 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 28"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

Looking for an adventure? Are you a geocacher? Well that's just how this trail was created, and it seems there is a secret geocache within the LTS that you may be able to find. While lots of folks just wheel right on by the area, on this 12 mile trail ride you get to have
some fun while getting to the correct location.

Byron Tower Loop - Trail Rated 4
Trail Rating: 4 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 31"
Minimum Lift Size: 2.5"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

Created in 2020, Byron Tower loop is a scenic route on existing trails, west of the Muddy Mountains and east of the I-15. The highlight of the trail is the halfway point or turnaround area, with the spectacular view looking down at The Bowl. Expect some desert pinstriping and a little bit of dust.

Minimum Tire Size: 31"
Minimum Lift Size: 2.5"
Front Locker Required: No

Got Hosed - Trail Rated 4

Trail Rating: 4 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 31"
Minimum Lift Size: 2.5"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No
Skid Plate: Recommended

New for 2023, and named after one of the event sponsors. It's a fun-filled 16.5 mile trail from beginning to end, covering just over 196 acres of the Logandale Trails System and Valley Of Fire. You will get to climb up and over some new areas, power through a sandy wash, then go up the Staircase and the Hidden Canyon wall.. Don’t worry, the trail helpers will make sure that YOU don't GET HOSED.

Hawkins Trail - Trail Rated 4
Trail Rating: 4 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 31"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

The Hawkins Trail runs between Glendale and the main wash in the Weiser Valley area. The trail has a lot of loose shale and whoops, and can be done in a stock Jeep; however, bumps, bruises, and scrapes with desert pinstriping may happen. Running through the main wash area at the north end of the trail are small steps, about 2 feet in height, that you will have to navigate. There are three to four good-sized hill climbs that you will navigate depending on your direction of travel.

Valve Stem - Trail Rated 4

Trail Rating: 4 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 33"
Minimum Lift Size: 2.5"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No
Skid Plate: Recommended

Created in 2019, Valve Stem starts off by heading back toward I15 from camp to access a winding trail ride and then takes you to Glendale and into the Weiser Valley area. Loose rock on upward climbs requires the use of 4-low, 1st Gear, and you can expect some desert pinstripes in the washes. A baby S-turn that all rigs must pass through will challenge any rig with less than a 2.5" lift and 35" tires. Expect a few bumps and underside scrapes as you go through it. Trail guides will be ready to jack you up and tug ya through. An obstacle ripping out a tire’s valve stem while this trail was created is how it got its name! From there it is a loose rock trail across the ridge lines of many hill tops, down through a few washes and back up, before you meet the Moapa Ride About, south of Jackman NV, and head back over to the Logandale Trails System. This is by far the longest trail (in distance) we have, at just over 30 miles from camp back into the Logandale Trails System.  Trail guides sometimes return via the Hawkins Trail if the day is running long.

Weiser Valley Trail - Trail Rated 4

Trail Rating: 4 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 31"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

The Weiser Valley trail follows the Moapa Ride About Trail. It is mostly a stock friendly trail with some steeper grades, and a few washed out areas that will need to be crawled. All the hard obstacles have bypasses. The trail starts riding along a ridge with good views of the area. It then descends into a wash where most of the rough terrain is located. Lots of optional obstacles to play on. This is the feeder trail to THE BOWL TRAIL and HAWKINS TRAIL.

Bowl Trail - Trail Rated 6

Trail Rating: 6 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 31"
Front Locker Required: It Helps
Rear Locker Required: It Helps

The Bowl Trail is a fun trail on the west side of the Logandale trail area. It is mostly a stock friendly trail with some steeper grade, and a few washed out areas that will need to be crawled though. All the hard obstacles have bypasses. The trail starts riding along a ridge with good views of the area. It then descends into a wash where most of the rough terrain is. The Bowl Trail is known for the S-turn obstacle, which is a very narrow, tight S-turn that is virtually guaranteed to cause body damage. A locker is recommended for the S-turn. The good news is that there is a bypass for it if you are not feeling very adventurous. You can continue the trail into the bowl - a large natural bowl that is quite scenic. You can also loop back to The Weiser Valley trail and check out The Matterhorn.

Matterhorn - Trail Rated 6

Trail Rating: 6 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 35"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

Good for those slightly modified vehicles. A scenic ride through the Logandale hills with an awesome view overlooking the Valley of Fire State Park. The red sandstone rock area puts a nice obstacle course of short hill climbs and descents in front you. Great optional offcamber climb just before a large hill climb that puts you back in the launch position! Matterhorn is a fun and challenging trail in the Logandale Trails System. Requirements are 35"+ tires. It is usually run as part of the Weiser Valley Trail and usually run from north to south, but can be run either way. It is named because of a small jagged peak that is next to the trail that somewhat resembles the The Matterhorn peak in Switzerland. The trail has a few fun obstacles that are slightly challenging, but not really enough to cause any carnage. There are some bypasses on some obstacles, but then what's the fun of going on the trail? The end of the trail is a steep v-notch climb to the top of a hill, and caps the trail perfectly.

Matterhorn 2.0 - Trail Rated 6

Trail Rating: 6 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 35"
Front Locker Required: No
Rear Locker Required: No

Who doesn't like an upgrade? The trail has a few fun obstacles that are slightly challenging, but not really enough to cause any carnage. There are bypasses on some obstacles, but then what's the fun of going on the trail? Running the Matterhorn route, you will be introduced to “Side Chick”, a fun off-shoot on the Weiser Wash, and the rock waterfall entrance to Arockalypse with maybe a shot at “Left Turn” for some added fun.

Shedder Bowl Trail - Trail Rated 7

Trail Rating: 7 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 33"
Front Locker Required: Yes
Rear Locker Required: Yes

Challenging and exciting for those with modified rigs. Based closest to base camp with plenty of optional obstacles that will keep you on edge. The trail starts off mild and continues to the Shedder Bowl where the first descent V-notch and tall hill climb gets the momentum going. After a series of short and tall waterfall climbs, you end up at the last obstacle (optional) which will either make or break you! This trail is also famous for un-official night runs. Shedder Trail, also known as Shredder Trail and Shitter Trail, is a short but action packed trail in the Logandale Trails System. Requirements are 33"+ tires and a rear locker. This trail is only for modified rigs with at least 33" tires and a lift. Lockers will help some of the obstacles, but those without lockers will be able to have fun on the trail as well with good spotting and a few bypasses. The trail often starts with a quick run through the Shedder Bowl, a fun little down and out bowl. After coming out of the bowl, you cross back and start the main trail. Shedder Trail is only about a mile long, but is essentially a series of obstacles from start to finish. You will not shift out of 4-low for the whole trail. There are too many obstacles to describe, but most of them are rocky with a few off-camber spots. Rock crawling is the theme of the trail, and there is enough variation that those with just slightly modified rigs, up to those with full-blown buggies will have a great time. Spotting is essential on a few of the steeper obstacles.

Upper Rock Bottom - Trail Rated 7

Trail Rating: 7 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 35"
Front Locker Required: Yes
Rear Locker Required: Yes

Rock Bottom is a difficult, rock crawling trail in the Logandale Trails System. It is about a mile long, but like many of the trails in the area, it is action packed. Those looking for a challenge will find it here. The entrance to the trail is a V-notch through which you tiptoe. From there you crawl up a slightly off-camber hill climb until you end up in a canyon with 3 ways out. The easiest is rated 4 and the hardest rated 7 has put many on their roof! As the trail comes to an end you have two ways to exit: the S-turn where your power steering, brake control, and abilities get a major workout, or the waterfall which is a pretty steep flat rock wall descent. After the trail have some fun at the sand dunes.

Bronco Falls - Trail Rated 8

Trail Rating: 8 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 35"
Front Locker Required: Yes
Rear Locker Required: Yes

Bronco Falls is an 8-rated trail and considered the most challenging on the list. A short trail includes a huge vertical climb up a rock wall suitable for buggies and highly modified rigs. Though it looks more intimidating than difficult, a good set of tires and some low gears will get you to the top. Plenty of off-camber waterfalls and vertical v-cracks that will test most modified rigs. The Shedder Bowl playground will continue the trail and give the most extreme rigs a run for their money! Bronco Falls is generally acknowledged as the most difficult mapped trail in the Logandale Trails System. For Hump'N'Bump, only rigs with 35"+ tires, lockers, and a winch will be allowed. The legend of how it got its name is that some members of the Vegas Valley 4 Wheelers were in the area scouting out trails and one of them was driving a Ford Bronco. On the last steep obstacle, the Bronco lost its footing and fell down the rock face. And the name has stuck ever since. And true to the name, it is a very challenging trail. It is simply a rock crawler's dream trail as it is just obstacle after obstacle of rocks, steps, and waterfalls. The climax of the trail is an extremely steep and off-camber climb that is known for its propensity to roll your rig. About once a month we hear about someone flipping or rolling over there, so care must be taken to complete the trail. Trust your spotter to show you exactly where to place your tires to avoid any rollovers. The trail should only be attempted by rigs with lifts, large tires, and lockers. Although we have heard about stock Jeeps and modified trucks making it through, we wouldn't recommend it unless you don't care that much about your rig. With that said, it is a very beautiful trail with incredible views of the area and if you make it through, you will be rewarded with a great sense of accomplishment. If you haven't lost your rock-crawling appetite, play around in Shedder Bowl at the end.

Hidden Canyon Trail - Trail Rated 8

Trail Rating: 8 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 35"
Front Locker Required: Yes
Rear Locker Required: Yes

The best (and most challenging) in all of Logandale! Sample obstacles from Shedder and Bronco Falls, then be rewarded with the steep and off-camber Hidden Canyon. We promise this trail will not disappoint! This trail combines the fun obstacles from the Shedder Trail, Bronco Falls, Rock Bottom, and Hidden Canyon. Requirements for this trail are 35"+ tires, lockers, and a winch. This trail starts in a canyon with a tall waterfall climb on the edge of your wheels, then lands you into a drop off chicane. Next you climb Bronco Falls and then drop into the Shedder Bowl, where a series of optional lines can take you to the most extreme terrain Logandale has to offer. Next you travel a trail over to the second tallest waterfall climb which takes you into the Hidden Canyon. Last you scale the walls of the V-notch in Lower Rock Bottom.

Lower Rock Bottom - Trail Rated 8

Trail Rating: 8 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 35"
Front Locker Required: Yes
Rear Locker Required: Yes

Those looking for a challenge will find it here. The entrance to the trail is a V-notch that you tiptoe through. From there you crawl up a slightly off-camber hill climb till you end up in a canyon with 3 ways out. The easiest is rated 4 and the hardest is a 7 that can put someone on their roof! As the trail comes to an end you have 2 ways to exit: the S-turn where your power steering, brake control, and abilities get a major workout, or the waterfall which is a pretty steep flat rock wall descent. After the trail, have some fun at the sand dunes before heading back to base camp. Trail will take about half the day with a large group, so bring snacks and plenty of water.

Buggy Trail - Trail Rated 9+

Trail Rating: 9 out of 10
Minimum Tire Size: 40"
Front Locker Required: Yes
Rear Locker Required: Yes

Added in 2020 - Leave the full body rigs at home for this one! The Logandale Trails System has obstacles that a (full-sized rig) just can’t make, and it was time for Hump‘N’Bump to offer something for the more experienced wheeler’s rig. If you’ve been to the LTS, you’ve probably seen the craziness happen before. When you are ready for the next level of wheeling, this is the trail that will challenge you and your rig to step out of your comfort zone! Expect a bit of carnage, and/or a break or two.

Communications

  • We strongly recommend participants have CB Radios for communications within the group
  • Each trail group is assigned a different CB channel, which will be confirmed by the Trail Leader prior to departure
  • For emergency communication outside of the range of cellular service, a number of our volunteers are also VHF (Ham) operators. A specific 2-meter communication frequency will be selected and used for Non-emergency communications.
  • For recovery and emergency communications we will use a separate channel which connects through a local repeater. The local ham radio club and the Logandale Fire Department have both agreed to monitor our ham radio frequencies (to be selected later) so that we can reach them immediately, if necessary
  • GPS is extensively used within our group so exact incident locations can easily be provided to Emergency Services, if necessary

Trail Guides

  • Our trail guides ensure participant safety, and enforce the rules and stipulations on the trails
  • Each team will have a “Trail Leader” and “Tail Gunner”, and more challenging trails will also have a “Mid Gunner”
  • All trail guides communicate with each other and with the participants using CB Radios.
  • All trail guides will be issued a handheld VHF (HAM) radio for emergency communications with base camp and our recovery team
  • All trail leaders are also equipped with CB Radios and cellular phones
  • Each trail group is assigned a different CB channel and communication from group to group is usually possible
  • Trail Guides are responsible for completing Incident Reports logging any problems, accidents, spills, or trail damage, and will give these reports to the event organizers at the end of the day for review
  • Trail Guides will be equipped with a spill cleanup kit. In the event that any trail restoration is necessary it is logged on the Incident Report and restoration teams will be dispatched from the Fairgrounds to correct any remaining damage.

Trail Leaders

  • The Trail Leader is responsible for leading the group, and will host a driver’s meeting to go over the rules, event stipulations, and safe practices before the group pulls out

Mid Gunners

  • The Mid Gunner is placed in the center of the larger groups, helps participants navigate obstacles, relays problems to the leader if they occur, and keeps everyone in line
  • In the event that there is a vehicle breakdown, and the Tail Gunner must remain with the participant and their vehicle, the Mid Gunner takes over the Tail Gunner’s duties

Tail Gunners

  • The Tail Gunner makes sure everyone gets through each challenging section of the trail safely
  • The Tail Gunner also makes sure that no spills, trash, or trail damage have occurred
  • In the event that there is a vehicle breakdown it is the Tail Gunner’s responsibility to make sure the driver encountering problems gets back to camp safely. In this case the Mid Gunner takes over the Tail Gunner’s duties.

Additional Event Rules

  • Participants are not allowed to consume alcoholic beverages or use illegal drugs before or while on the trails. Violation of this rule risks expulsion from the event.
