5am and our alarm is going off. Time to hit the road for Death Valley.
Loading the car this morning was like packing a wagon for the trail. We had been a bit quick in our packing adding too much to the pile. So we had to consolidate bags to make it all fit. Ditching the extra pot, a couple gallons of water, and lots of odds and ends.
2 hours later… We got underway in a completely jam packed Chevy Traverse rental.
After leaving Bay Area traffic behind we headed toward Tehachapi where we ate lunch at Red House BBQ. Good stuff!
Continuing on the road to Death Valley we stopped briefly at some rock formations near Red Rock Canyon Park. Where we captured some of our favorite shots of the day.
