Hello All.
Over the four day Thanksgiving weekend, my girlfriend and I went out to Death Valley, just to get away from it all.
We planned to to to Saline Valley Hot Springs and just chill, and soak.
We packed up the Tacoma and hit the road.
A lot of other people had the same idea... They were loaded up with all their toys, and were headed out to the desert too.
Our drive was about 275 miles so we had plenty of windshield time.
The two GPS were in agreement...
The last bit of pavement before we got to the 70 miles of dirt to the Hot Springs.
The first part of Saline Valley road was in good condition.
The night before this area apparently got some snow.
A motorcyclist had the same idea as us.
We continued on...
But as we gained elevation, the snow became more prevalent.
But like any day after a storm, the weather was bright and clear.
It's hard to beat a scene like this.
Excellent road and great views.
The recent snow made for a unique experience.
The valley below.
We continued on...
Great views in every direction.
Our destination, the Hot Springs, are down in that valley below.
The final five miles off the Saline Valley road.
Stats when we reach the destination.
More to come.
