The Kyle Canyon Slots Road and Trailhead is located up in the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area (also known as Mt. Charleston), about 30 minutes northwest of Las Vegas.

From town, drive north on Highway 95 to Kyle Canyon Road (Highway 157; Table 1, Site 0667). Turn left onto Kyle Canyon Road and drive west for 12.3 miles to Harris Springs Road (Site 0764), which is just past two paved and lighted "chain up" pullouts.

Turn left onto the infrequently graded Harris Springs Road and drive south for about 200 yards as the road runs out across Kyle Canyon Wash. When Harris Springs Road turns left to cut up the hillside, turn right onto a one-lane dirt road (Forest Road 45532H; Site 1283), which Google Maps lists as Crested Wheatgrass Road.

Follow Forest Road 45532H west for 0.42 miles as it runs along the south edge of Kyle Canyon Wash. Forest Road 45532H runs straight and then follows the cliffs around to the south and up towards a cleft in the cliffs.

The road passes close to the cliff, then passes a large (several vehicles) parking area on the left (Site 1286). A bit farther, the road bends sharply to the right, passes a small parking area, and drops into the wash. Staying to the left in the gravel, the road runs up into the mouth of the slot. Depending on the vehicle, pick an appropriate parking area. Stop here; this is the trailhead (Site 1284).

I drove in the first time in my wife's sedan and that was fine, but I stopped just before dropping into the wash. Less adventuresome driver might park in the edge of Harris Springs Road (Site 1283) and walk from there. We are hikers, so we might as well hike!
