Day 6

We did some more driving and hiking today. There is a road that climbs up to 5500 feet above the Valley that is supposed to have the best views in the park. I would say that almost assuredly has to be the case. We did some exploring once we got up there. It was cold and windy. We did have jackets but the conditions weren't conducive to a prolonged stay. There is a high dollar resort near Furnace Creek that needed to be visited. We did that. I shudder to think what a 1 week stay in that place would cost. We did another backcountry road and now its the gift shop for the souvenir Tshirt. We have one more full day here. There are still some places to visit and trails to hike.

  2. Date palm trees. Furnace Creek is an actual creek with water. Thats where the water comes from.
