Scotty's Castle and Kaleidoscope Canyon
#13
Yes, that’s it. Thanks for sharing the photo. I remember watching the gas gauge, which was dropping down just under a half tank as I was descending down the Racetrack Valley road and wondering if the gas station at the castle would be open or not, or if I would have to make a long detour to Beatty. Before that day I had been skunked both by Furnace Creek and Stovepipe stations closing long before their advertised times more than once and had to detour to Beatty for gas. I was worried about what time the pumps at the castle closed, I pulled in at 5:15 and was told that they were about to lock them up for the night. The date of my visit was December 29, 1996. I was worried because my gas gauge was just under a half tank, but the truck took 7.9 gallons and had a 19 gallon tank.
