Sat, Jan 31 Death Valley to Vegas

This is the start (really the end) of our trip to Vegas & Death Valley.

We stayed in Furnace Creek Ranch. Our flight home wasn't until 6:00 pm, so we had time to see some more stuff.

This is Badwater salt flats, the lowest point in N. America (282 ft below sea level). You can see it on yesterday (Friday's) entry from Aguereberry Pt. The Panamint Mts are behind me.

We walked out on the salt flats and we're looking back to where I was standing in the previous pic. You can (barely) see our Nissan Rogue in the parking lot and above on the rock is a white spot, that represents sea level, blub blub I'm drowning


This is called the Devil's Golf Course. To me it looks like a'a lava in Hawaii, but it is salt pinnacles carved by the wind.
