So, have you learned yet of Val Nolan’s grave? It’s on the old road leading east to the main road north up the valley. I haven’t visited Stovepipe nor Nolan’s grave since the road was closed to vehicular traffic.
You can also find segments of the old Rhyolite-Skidoo road in the canyon on the way to Daylight Pass; on the other side of Daylight Pass you can easily spot it heading straight for Rhyolite. This particular tangent was widened for use by Old Dinah, the old steam tractor displayed in front of the old Furnace Creek Ranch resort complex (I don’t know if it’s still there or where it is after the transformation of the resort).
In the canyon above Beatty Junction are remains of several of the telephone poles of the Rhyolite-Skidoo telephone line as well.
