The Cactus Crawl in Ajo, Arizona was a weekend to remember.

Ajo is a small historic mining town nestled in the Sonoran Desert, located about 130 miles southwest of Phoenix and approximately 40 miles from the Mexico border. Nearby towns include Why (10 miles), Gila Bend (40 miles north), Lukeville, and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Rich in copper-mining history, Ajo is also known for its Spanish-style architecture and historic churches, including Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, a long-standing centerpiece of the town. Deep Mexican and Native American influences shape the culture and character of the community.

UTV Offroad Adventures took riders deep into Arizona’s wildest and most historic backcountry for a two-day journey through the legendary El Camino Del Diablo — the Devil’s Highway — a route known for both its beauty and its brutal history. This 300-mile round trip from Ajo to Wellton and back delivered everything from adventure and laughter to desert history and unforgettable memories.

UTV Offroad Adventures delivered another unforgettable weekend, taking riders on a breathtaking journey from the tall pines of Heber, Arizona to the high-country beauty of Sunrise Ski Lodge in the White Mountains.

UTV Offroad Adventures once again delivered a weekend to remember with the 2025 Williams to the Grand Canyon Experience, taking 31 SXS machines and about 70 participants on an unforgettable journey from the charming mountain town of Williams, Arizona — the “Gateway to the Grand Canyon.” Known for its nostalgic Route 66 charm, historic downtown, and attractions like Bearizona Wildlife Park, Williams set the perfect stage for this annual adventure.

The Pines & Peaks SXS Adventure was a fantastic summer escape into the tall pines and rugged peaks of northern Arizona, based out of the beautiful Village Camp RV Resort in Belmont, AZ. Hosted by UTV Offroad Adventures, the event welcomed 45 SXS vehicles and approximately 80 enthusiastic riders from Arizona, California, Texas, and beyond. The oldest adventurer was 72 years young, while the youngest participant was just 20, proving that this offroad family spans generations. Nestled in the towering pines near Belmont, AZ, about 2 hours north of Phoenix and just a short drive from Flagstaff, Parks, and Williams, this event showcased some of northern Arizona’s most scenic and diverse terrain.
