Excellent video. I think my wife would have that same 'look' if she had been sleeping in the front seat of a 4x4 all night ... BTW you can continue the trail east past Inyo mine, and exit DV. The trail gets much tougher eventually leading to the Echo Canyon 'staircase', a fun technical section of trail that is described as 'the toughest obstacle in DV' in some guidebooks. This trail is very remote and low traffic, and very scenic....

Thanks for watching! We've actually been through the steps on a previous trip and loved it. That's a fun little trail!

Great video! I spent a night in Death Valley in early May - no rig yet, just good old 2 foot drive, so my range was limited. But I did get to witness two chuckwallas brawling on a scree slope. Chuck Norris has nothing on these guys!

Wow! So cool! We saw several on the trip the year before and my friend (who is a reptile nerd) caught one so we got to see it up close.
