After taking a look at the GPS pic the area isn't as large as I thought...maybe something will happen there. If something does go down wouldn't there need to be some proper set up time. I'd go camp out if I was close...it's not like something will appear from nowhere. Is that drive in closed down? Sorry that may have been addressed before.

Badwater lake is one of the lowest points on earth, where they say the salt flats can break into hexagonal patterns. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badwater_Basin
Death Valley National Park in the early spring or mid-autumn is great. I have made several trips out there to different parts of the park. It's so big and there is much to see there.
Im totally considering making the drive up there. It's about 2 hours from where I live in Orange County. Kinda nervous because i've never driven that far before in my life
Just got over the biggest hump, which was convincing my wife to join me (couple hour drive). She's going to bring her 5D if anything ends up happening; I'll see some of y'all out there.

Anyone in the Bay Area interested in heading down? This seems a perfect end to finals and I'm crazy enough right now to rent a car and drive 7 hours to Barstow.
If anything that at least seems like a cool place to explore. Be careful though, not sure of the legality of exploring there so just don't have like a pound of coke in your pockets or something in case the fuzz shows up. Oh, and wear sunscreen. And have fun! [/grandma]
All of old. Nothing else ever. Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
