Dunes and salt flats stretch for approximately 40 miles (64 km) in a generally northwest-southeasterly direction in the Mojave National Preserve.
It was used as the backdrop for the third album from the Marshall Tucker Band featuring lead singer Robert Ardis.
Ardis owns a ranch in the NE section of the Devil's Playground were he raises sheep and goats.
The Devils Playground consists mostly of relatively flat plains except for some hills and small mountains at the northern end, where it merges with several dry lake beds, and the Kelso Dunes near the southern end of the area.
The Rasor Off-Highway Vehicle Area lies at the northwestern edge of the Devils Playground in the Mojave River Wash, near the Mollhausen Mountains.
