I think I'll try the route djgarcia suggested. I've been on CA-58 and US-395 before then down through San Bernardino and Redlands. I'm interested in trying the bypass route north of San Bernardino. As several have suggested it looks like 86 entering Borrego Springs from the east is preferred. Before I wasn't looking at the terrain west of Borrego Springs as closely as I should have.
Thanks,

Hello Neil,
I think you are really going to enjoy this route and find it easy to drive. There is some pretty county to see. I recommend you fill your tank in Bakersfield as this will get you to Indio without having to fuel up again. Fuel up in Indio again as the price of fuel is not as cheap once you leave Indio. I would also suggest you stock up on all your food and staples in indio for the same reason. Shopping in Anza Borego is pretty limited and costly.
Enjoy your stay.
