Goler Canyon OHV Road

From the drive in to the drive out, bone-chilling and awe-inspiring landscape as far as the eye can see. Caterpillars, spiders and the "company providing" sound of an owl will help you feel right at home in an otherwise "other-worldly" location. Terrain is rough as these giants were formed from calcium and alkaline thousands of years ago. Four-wheel drive is suggested but not required. Dress ap...

The town of Trona is very small but the landscape here is definitely one your shouldn't miss out on seeing. These crazy tufa formations were formed underwater before Searles lake dried up many years ago. It's amazing that they are still standing tall! Very tall, in fact, you can see how they've dwarfed my Grand Prix in one of my shots.You might hear that the road is unmanageable without 4 wheel...

If you have the Death Valley National Geographic Map, there is a trail noted at the base of Pinon Mesa (which is not really a mesa so don't look for it) that leads to Hummingbird Spring.

Once at the Mahogany Flat Campground, the trailhead is towards the south and is marked by a sign and trail post. Continue south through a densely forested eastface (warm in mo...

We decided to explore it with a group of friends on motorcycles but a car will do just fine too.Death Valley is located in Eastern California's Mojave Desert. From LA, take highway 395 and meet up with the 178 in Ridgecrest, CA and enter on the eastern side of the park or enter on the western side of ...

Every spring, a few plants and flowers spring up from the driest place in North America, California's Death Valley National Park. Knowing where to go is important, but not as important as knowing when to go. Wildflower season only lasts a few weeks before daytime temps hit 80º and the flowers go to seed.Typically in late February and early March after winter rains, wildflowers begin popping up ...
