Garmin Tread 2 SxS Edition Weekend Ride Review

The 8" ultrabright, glove-friendly touch screen is the bomb. Midday Nevada sun + dust = still readable. The touch accuracy with gloves is excellent.

Mapping & Navigation the preloaded topo and downloaded satellite imagery was clutch around Delamar and in Rainbow Canyon. Seeing the roads and washes on imagery helped confirm lines. The waypoints and tracks we used by dropping pins for guzzlers, petroglyphs, and lookouts were quick and track recording never hiccupped.

The ruggedness with two days of dust, vibration, temp swings, and a couple mud splashes, no glitches. Buttons and ports stayed clean, screen wiped clear with a cloth and the unit felt every bit trial-proof.

What stood out on this ride was clarity at speed: at 25–40 mph on graded sections, the big display let us read upcoming forks without slowing. The confidence at intersections with the combo of high-detail maps + satellite view reduced second-guessing when tracks braided.

Room for improvement with the Garmin Tread 2 SXS Edition on my side. There is definitely a learning curve, the menus are deep and probably need to spend some time customizing data fields and shortcuts before a big ride. The on-screen keyboard is fine, but naming waypoints with gloves takes patience.

The Bottom line is if you enjoy exploring beyond cell service, the Garmin Tread 2 SxS Edition nails the essentials: bright, fast, accurate, and truly trail-tough. The included SxS mount and hardwire kit make it feel purpose-built for my machine.

What a weekend exploring Eastern Nevada’s wild beauty and deep history!

Day 1

We rolled out from Caliente, climbed east up Clover Creek to Barnes Canyon, and stopped at a wildlife guzzler where a rain & snow catchment that keeps desert critters watered. Petroglyphs told ancient stories. Pine Canyon and Mathews Canyon flood-control dams showed how the Union Pacific Railroad and Caliente was protected in the early days. The old Barclay Schoolhouse shared its pioneer roots. We capped it with a climb to Ella Mountain Lookout, one of only three lookouts left in Nevada and the only one still staffed during fire season. Views for days! Dropped off the top and cruised down Sawmill Canyon into Caliente.

Dinner by Get Sauced BBQ, with evening events hosted by VFW Post 7114—thank you!

Day 2

We headed west to the Oak Springs Trilobite Area (500-million-year-old fossils!). Our expert geologist even shared a few fresh finds. From there we followed the Silver State 300 course to Culverwell Mine to tour the old workings and dwellings, then on to Delamar. We visited the cemetery first, then around the mountain into the ghost town itself. Once a boomtown that pulled millions in gold and silver, history was everywhere. Rainbow Canyon delivered again with the charming Elgin Schoolhouse (1922–1967) and a stop at the Taylor Mine then back into Rainbow Canyon to visit Howard Hughes’ Conaway Ranch once dreamed of a resort and even ran a 9-hole course before the mid-’80s flood. Fall colors were showing off.

Two days. 170 miles. Fossils, petroglyphs, ghost towns, schoolhouses, a fire lookout, blazing fall colors, and wide-open Nevada skies. This is why we ride.
