Troop 413 - Death Valley Trip
In this trip to Death Valley we explored the North side of the park

January 2010


First we over night at a church in Rosamond, CA.


GPS Geo Cache practice in Trona


The road to Death Valley


Setting up camp


Cactus


Gravel Road to the "Race Track"



The race track is a remote dry lake bed. It is a very pristine clay surface with an interesting color and appearance. It is known for becoming slick during rain storms and allowing rock to move on the surface with the wind, leaving tracks!











Can you see the track they are pointing at?


Whoops, lost a tire. Only the first on the trip. Nasty gravel road!



You can spot the Scout haulers by the trail dust!


Ubehebe (Shhhh! It was closed)


Camp site photos


After sunset the Coyotes would start to howl. Sometimes within a couple hundred feet of our camp sites!


Trouble lighting the fire?! Back to basics!


Tailgating at the adult site!




Sunday Morning "Scouts' Own" Worship Service




The Panamint Dunes at Stove Pipe Wells


Those tiny dots are people. Can you identify our Scouts?




Beautiful Hills!

Fun around the campfire




Preparing for possible rain during the night.



A beautiful alluvial fan!
