I have my pictures up from last weekends trip to Death Valley. We
went 6 miles up Fall Canyon on Saturday, and checked out Badwater,
the Natural Bridge, the Devil's Golfcourse, and Artist's Palette on
Sunday.

Here are the pictures (I'm still working on captions):

Those pics are great. The sky was so blue. The colors in the rocks are striking. What's the story on the last 10 pics with the flats? Those pics ar intriguing.

Thank you for sharing them.

Great pics, I was there in Nov 03. I still can't get over the vast landscape with no trees, grass or anything. It was a big change for this guy from north Alabama.

The last pictures are Badwater, the Natural Bridge, Devil's GolfCourse and Artist's Palette.

We didn't get going up Fall Canyon until after 10 in the morning, but we did pretty good by making it up there a good 6 miles (turned around at just over elevation 3,200 feet. It was nice and cool in the Canyon with lots of shade.

We even saw a bighorn sheep in the canyon (one living one and the leg bone of another).

I'm headed back with a few people the weekend of February 20th if anyone else is interested in that weekend they are welcome to join in on the trip. It'll be car camping and day hiking.
