Howdy Ya’ll,
It’s now Tuesday…I am finally heading out of the San Diego area for good. I have been very fortunate to spend quite a bit of time in this wonderful area in the past month. But it’s time to move on now!!
My destination is Death Valley National Park. In particular I was looking for Badwater, CA. This is the lowest point of the Continental US. It is 282 feet below sea level.
I made it out there in the late afternoon. The salt flats were very interesting to see. At Badwater there it a visitors spot where you can walk out onto the salt flats- and up on the cliff behind the boardwalk is a sign to show where sea level is.
For more info about this area please see: www.nps.gov/deva/
I then headed out of the Death Valley Park. I saw a sign for “Area 51” It was dark now and I was looking for a place to land for the night. I drove thru Las Vegas, NV. The city was a sea of lights and people. I found a truck stop area about 10 mins outside of the city…near the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. I decided to catch some sleep here for the night.
Enjoy the pictures!!!
