    Headed back to Death Valley after our last trip just a couple months ago. Another amazing experience covering Butte Valley, Goler Wash, Charcoal Kilns, Saline Valley + Warm Springs, Steel Pass, and Eureka Dunes.

    Back to Death Valley

    ...when I found out that @mrs.turbodb was headed out of town for a week, I was quick to make plans for a return trip to Death Valley. Going solo, my route did include a few of our favorite spots (Butte Valley and Goler Wash), but focused on several new areas as well - most outside of Death Valley proper (West Side Road, Charcoal Kilns, Saline Valley + Warm Springs, Steel Pass, and Eureka Dunes)...

    The Death Valley trip continues - Goler Wash, Charcoal Kilns, Mahogany Flat, Panamint Valley, South Pass, and Saline Valley - quite the day.

    Return to Death Valley - Day 3

    ...As I crawled into the tent, a warm light breeze and quiet
    sounds of the desert lulled me to sleep quickly. Even if
    the springs weren't the amazing destination that they used to be,
    the desert itself made up for it - that was for sure.

    Little did I know that as I slept change was afoot...

    Back to Death Valley – Day 4, 5 – Steel Pass & Eureka Dunes

    ... A couple hours after falling asleep just north of
    Saline Valley Warm Springs, I was awoken by what
    I initially thought was a gunshot in my dream. But,
    with the valley still echoing, I soon realized it was no dream.
