Give us your DEVA backcountry plans or dreams!

[John Morrow]

Try to figure out the secrets (if any) as to why no one, I mean nobody, reports on Chuckwalla and Death Valley Canyons....

What are some of your future plans and/or dreams; immediate or far reaching?

Chuckwalla and surrounding area does have some neat stuff.  Chuckwalla Crater is very cool and mostly unvisited.  Although based on the abundance of old roads and foot-trails in the area, I suspect it was once a tourist attraction in the park.  I have been scouring old maps and tourist books but have yet to stumble across a mention of it.  



Theres also some really neat wind-eroded rocks in the area.  Ive even found several firepits that seemed to be fairly old out there.  A much more active area at one time and it has always fascinated me.  I need to explore it a bit more.

Cool, thanks Beardilocks!   Any chance that is a native trail?  Mojavegeek once posted about a native trail out from Mohagony to Calville Ridge.  Dropping off from there into Chuckwalla seems improbably steep but could these have connected as a travel route, prehistory?
