For us, a week in one place, is a long time; but
not here at Death Valley NP.
We came

back to Furnace Creek campground after ten years, and were pleased with the improvements including paved level sites and full hookups. Expecting cold temperatures, we took the hookups so
we w
ould stay toasty warm. Turns out the temps have been ideal and in fact later in the week the thermometer may hit 78 degrees.
We came to meet up with our good friends,
Gail & Dan, and together hike till

our boots fall off., and we did! Dan has been terrific with the hikes he's chosen everyday. From Golden Canyon to Zabriskie Point, Darwin Falls, Desolation Canyon, Mosaic Canyon, and more to trek before the end of this week.




The canyons, the mountains, the rocks, the washes, and all of this incredible landscape were on the hike list.
We even hiked to a natural spring that gushed water here in the desert.
Rock scrambling has been one of the highlights; especially thinking about how we would get back down. (It's always easier going up than down?)
All in a days hike.
