FYI
- Desert park on Nevada/California boarder
- AVOID IN SUMMER- way too hot
- Can do it all in one day- not really worth it unless its a road trip stop
- Practically no hiking- every attraction can drive directly to it
- Salt will absolutely get on your pants and shoes
- Two Roads contain all stops
- 1 Badwater road
- 2 CA-190
Where to stay
