We headed out of Zion and fueled on buffalo jerky, we headed towards Vegas. Lots of hanging by the pool, a few drinks and a few slots. I think we may have gambled $15 over all. Hey big spender.
After fueling up on burgers and sushi the next day we left late for Death Valley. We decided to sleep at an RV park just outside Death Valley and check it out in the morning.
A 5 am wake up call from a wild burrow announced that it was time to explore the park. Due to the over 100 degree temp expected that day we decided to make it a car exploration day and keep the hikes to a minimum. We visited the salt flats at badwater, drove through artists pallette canyon and went to zabrinski point for the view. All this was pretty spectacular, but then again so was the cold beer waiting for me when the temp hit 104 degrees.
After successfuly exploring the park and not having the car or me overheat we made the crazy trecherous drive towards Lone pine, our place of rest for the day. This drive included twisting switch backs, an elevation change of thousands of feet, lots of hairpin turns and meeting up with RVs that were way to big for the road. But we made it and it was time for sleep.
Trying some of that Death Valley Salt
Things got a little HOT!
