Im back from an awesome long weekend!
This is the latest weve been in DV since like the first time ever, we usually go in december/january. Was not looking forward to the temps. But maybe the lizards and pup fish are out and I finally get to see them!
Milion thanks to Kauri for your reports and map, to MojaveGeek for the huge amount of tips and to Bluegreen kayak because I lack imagination and used your trip report shamelessly to pick destinations.
Friday leave home after work. Drive drive drive drive. Sleep in a rest area. Drive drive get to death valley late morning saturday.
Went to check out the Artist Palette canyons.
Dip #1 was very beautiful with nice views of the panamints and the initial obstacles were easy enough we could figure them out and enjoy the challenge. We eventually ended in a huge pile of rocks that got a bit tedious, and having another 3 canyons to check out, we decided to turn around.
