Death Valley-Day 3

Hi All,

This morning we drove from Furnace Creek 190 feet below sea level to Dante's View at 5,500 ft. The last quarter mile climbed at 15% and, yes, there were bicyclist up there!

The view across Death Valley was awesome

Next we hiked Natural Bridge Canyon.



A curious geologic feature and a nice hike

Last stop was the Harmony Borax works. We remembered 20 mule team Borax but didn't realize those poor 20 mules had to pull these loaded wagons 165 miles through the desert to the nearest railroad.
We had a great time in Death Valley and left a few sites and hikes for a future visit.

Love,
